There's a finger on the dial,
The lucky wheel goes round,
Little joker knows he can't escape
The same time every year,
The fun fair's back in town,
Numbers in the air like ticker tape

58, 56, 54,
Good angels at my door
63, 62, 61, 60, 59, 58,
Good angels at my gate

Throw a seven down,
Place another bet,
The joker laughs as the stakes get higher
The gambler and the clown,
Without a safety net,
Balancing unsteady on a wire

58, 56, 54,
Good angels at my door
63, 62, 61, 60, 59, 58,
Good angels at my gate

There's a finger on the dial,
The lucky wheel goes round,
Little joker knows he can't escape
The same time every year,
The fun fair's back in town,
Numbers in the air like ticker tape

58, 56, 54,
Good angels at my door
63, 62, 61, 60, 59, 58,
Good angels at my gate
59, 58, 57, 56, 55, 54,
Good angels at my door
63, 62, 61, 60, 59, 58,
Good angels at my gate
59, 58, 57, 56, 55, 54, [fading]
