Lyrics

Step right up, ladies and gentlemen
Step this way
The greatest show on hurt
Nine to three this morning
Step up and see Tommy McLain's show

Come one, come all
See the greatest show on hurt
I’ve practiced for so long
I'm the greatest act on earth
There's a showing in this town
Every night from nine ‘til three
If you wanna see the greatest show
Step right up, that’s me

And see me swim this whiskey river
With no life vest at all
Sit and watch me while I cry
One million teardrops fall
And catch me when I stumble
And fall down to the ground
Be sure to tell all of your friends
The greatest show's in town

This way, ladies and gentlemen
Step this way
Come one, come all
The greatest show on hurt
Step up and see Tommy McLain's show

If it's a fast one that you want
I'll still sing it blue
After all this heartache
That's the best that I can do
Drop a dollar in the tip jar
Hear me lay it down
Welcome to this circus
I'm the brokenhearted clown

And up here in the spotlight
Hoping you won't see
Hiding in the shadows
Is where I’d rather be
Still I sing my story
Even while the tears begin
And come this time tomorrow night
I’ll do it all again
Come one, come all
And see the greatest show on hurt
I've practiced for so long
I’m the greatest act on earth
There's a showing in this town
Every night from nine ‘til three
If you wanna see the greatest show
Step right up, that's me

This way, ladies and gentlemen
Step this way
Come one, come all
The greatest show on hurt
