12 Jun 01 - 11:07 PM (#482112) Subject: RE: Tune Req: SONGS ABOUT CLOWNS From: Oversoul I wretch at the thought of this song...but it is about a rodeo clown. Not Red Sovine, but just as bad, musical vomit. I think I last heard it in the mid-seventies. Rodeo is sick enough, but clowns? ...acting as white trash "first response people? Anyone interested in a raunchy side-bar to this nonsense should send old Dave a PM for the real story. I will tell you what I remember, nothing more and nothing less. Bronko bustin' Dave jess' |

12 Jun 01 - 11:35 PM (#482141) Subject: RE: Tune Req: SONGS ABOUT CLOWNS From: Sorcha You mean "Bandy the Rodeo Clown"? And, (soapbox here) rodeo is not really sick. The animals are WELL taken care of, work 8 seconds a day max, and are NOT abused!! A bucking strap is no worse than a jock strap a size too small, and electric prods aren't used that much. I'd like to work 8 seconds a day. Good rodeo animals are hard to come by, and too expensive to abuse. (take away the soapbox please..........) |

13 Jun 01 - 01:31 AM (#482204) Subject: RE: Tune Req: SONGS ABOUT CLOWNS From: Lyrical Lady Thank you for all your responses ... I'm looking for the lyrics to 'Cathy's Clown' and 'In Dreams' (Roy Orbison). I'm also wondering where I can I go to listen to an mp3 of Bill Stains 'Jubilee'. I have the lyrics to it but I don't know the tune. Thanks. LL |

13 Jun 01 - 09:07 PM (#482959) Subject: Lyr Add: CATHY'S CLOWN^^ From: SINSULL CATHY'S CLOWN CHORUS: Don't want your love, any more. Don't want your kisses, that's for sure. I die each time I hear this sound: "Here he comes. That's Cathy's clown." 1. I've got to stand tall. You know a man can't crawl. When he knows you tell him lies, But he lets them pass him by, He's not a man at all. CHORUS 2. When you see me shed a tear, And you know that it's sincere, Don't you think it's kind of sad That you're treatin' me so bad, Or don't you even care? CHORUS Yes they really did rhyme care with sincere! Doesn't matter. Mary, who still has a hopeless crush on Phil Everly and wrote this from memory (my god, it's 40+ years!) |

13 Jun 01 - 09:11 PM (#482960) Subject: RE: Tune Req: SONGS ABOUT CLOWNS From: Sorcha I don't think it's out there, but it is on this CD, from Mudcat's own Sandy Paton at Folk Legacy:
Bill Staines- THE WHISTLE OF THEJAY - FLCD70 Try contacting Sandy (or possibly Dick Greenhaus at Camsco) and see if he'll play it for you on the phone or something. If all else fails, buy the CD. Bill needs the income, lol! |
