Jack Johnson - Rodeo Clowns Cover

This is my rendition of Jack Johnson's Rodeo Clowns, now before you go saying this isn't anything like the one on the On and On album, check the version Jack originally did. The one on G. Love's Philadelphonic album. That's how he originally wrote it. Hope you like the solo, I improvised it :)Rate and comment please! I'll check out your videos as well!Lyrics:Sweepin' the floors, open up the doorsYeah turn on the lights, getting ready for tonightNobody's romancing, 'cause it's too early for dancingBut here comes the musicBright lights flashingThey cover up your lack of so many peopleSo many problemsSo many reasons to buy another roundDrink it downJust another night on the townWith the big man, money man, better then the other manHe got the plan, with the million dollar give a damnWhen nobody understandsHe'll become a smaller man, the bright lights keep flashin,Women keep on dancing with the clowns,Yeah, yeah, yeah,They pick me up when I'm down,Yeah, yeah,The rodeo clownsYeah, yeah, yeah, they pick me up when I'm downThe disco ball's spinnin', all the music and the womenAnd the shots of tequila,Man they say that they need yaWhat they really need, is just a little room to breathTeeny bopping disco queenShe barely understands her dreams of belly button ringsAnd other kinds of thingsSymbolic of change, but the thing that is strangeIs that the changes occurAnd now she's just a part of the herd, yeah, yeah, yeahMan i thought that you heardYeah, yeahThe changes occurredYeah, yeah, yeah, just a part of the herdLights out, shut down, late night, wet groundYou walk by look at him, but he can't look at youYeah, you might feel pity, but he only feels the groundYou understand moves, but he only knows let downBy the corner, there's another oneReaching out a hand, coming from a broken manTryin' to live, but he's done tryingNot dead, but definitely dyingWith the rest of the clownsWith the rest of the clownsSweepin the floors, open up the doors,Yeah turn on the lights, getting ready for the nightNobody's romancing, 'cause its too early for dancingBut here comes the music
