Webb Wilder - Human Cannonball lyrics

Saw the ad in the paper Said the hell with it all Took a gig with the circus As the human cannonball It didn't take long To learn my trade Very first show Man, I blew the folks away Now, the job's a little risky But I'm my own boss I got to tell ya, Jack It really gets me off I live in a tent with The world's strongest man When I met the mother Like to broke my hand My baby, she's a lady In the high-wire act When I'm feeling tense She walks on my back Now, the pay's okay The benefits are great I get to shoot the bull With the world's smartest ape Ah ha I'm the human cannonball I'm the human cannonball, y'all Well I'm a hot shot I'm a cool breeze Underneath the big top I'm the big cheese I lay it on the line Let it all hang When I go, least I know I'll go with a bang I reckon I'm living Every kid's dream It's a buzz, it's a gas It's a real scream Ah ha I'm the human cannonball I'm the human cannonball, y'all Yeah Alright, folks Just make yourself at home Have a snow cone and enjoy the show They put me on the cover Of the U.S.A. Today Tell the world what the human cannonball got to say On the Carson show They sayin' "HC, what you do, you got to be Right outta your tree!" Well, it's a little risky But I'm my own boss I got to tell you, John It really gets me off Ah ha I'm the human cannonball I'm the human cannonball, y'all I'm the human cannonball I'm the human cannonball, y'all Yeah Hahahahaha! Now, blast off! I said blast off!
