The Joker

Sammy Davis Jr.

Compositor: Ahmet Ertegun / Steve Miller / Eddie Curtis

There's always a joker in the pack
There's always a lonely clown
The poor laughing fool falls on his back
And everyone laugh when he's down

There's always a funny man in the game
But he's only funny by mistake
But everyone laughs at him, just the same
They don't see his lonely heart break
They don't care as long as there is a jester, just a fool
As foolish as he can be
There's always a joker, that's the rule
But fate deals the hand and I see
The joker is me

They don't care as long as there is a jester, just a fool
As foolish as he can be
There's always a joker, that's the rule
But fate deals the hand and I see
The joker is me
The joker is me
The joker is me
