Laughin and Clownin

I'm laughin' and clownin'
Just to keep from cryin'
I'm laughin' and clownin'
Baby, just to keep from cryin'
I try to hide the fact
That I've got a worried mind

Being the life of the party
Now that seemed to be my little role
Being the life of the party
Seemed to be my little role
Tryin' to hide my feelings
Tryin' to hide my soul
Standin' in the doorway
Watchin' all the girls go through
Standin' in the doorway
Watchin' all the girls go through
I'm tryin' to find me somebody
To take my mind off you

Laughin', laughin', laughin'
Laughin', laughin', laughin' and clownin'
Laughin' to keep from cryin'
I'm laughin' and clownin'
Laughin' and clownin'
Just to keep from cryin'
I'm just tryin' to hide the fact now
That I've got a troubled mind, troubled mind

And I'm standin' in the doorway
And I'm watchin' all the girls go through
I'm standin' in the doorway, baby
Watchin' all the girls go through
I'm tryin' to find me somebody
To take my mind off you
To take my mind off you
