Joker Went Wild - Brian Hyland

Once I was a king, I thought always a king

'Cause I just captured someone’s heart

But may I explain, I treated her mean

And then my kingdom fell apart

I found I couldn’t sleep at night

And when I found her gone from sight

Found out I loved her

Became a joker

The joker went wild and he couldn’t smile

Because he had lost everything

The joker went wild and he couldn’t smile

He felt no longer like a king

Some friendly advice, treat her heart nice

Or she won’t stay for very long if at all

If you think you’re a king and you know everything

Just remember, the joker or you’ll fall from her arms

You’ll find you cannot sleep at night

And when you find her gone from sight

You’ll find you loved her

Become a joker

The joker went wild and he couldn’t smile

Because he had lost everything

The joker went wild and he couldn’t smile
