She picked on me
When I was lonely
She picked on me
When I was down
She picked on me

It wasn´t easy
To pull me up
And to bring me around
She picked on me
When I was lonely
She kicked me when I was down
She picked on me
Cause it was plain to see
Always in trouble
My life was a circus And
I was a clown

I was making a life
Out of singing the blues
And I was learning to choose
Which way to lose
Sometimes it felt like I was ready to fly
Taking off for the sky

But didn´t know how to try
Somebody please turn on the lights
Well that´s what you did
By shaking me left and right

She picked on me
When I was lonely
She picked on me
When I was down
She picked on me
It wasn´t easy
To pull me up
And to bring me around
She picked on me
When I was lonely
She kicked me when
I was down
She picked on me

Cause it was plain to see
Always in trouble
My life was a circus
And I was a clown

I was searching the fire
But couldn´t hold on to the truth
Wanted to go up in style
Holding on to my cowboy boots
There was no way up
And there was no way
I was coming down
Still I was going for the final count
I was going out first round
Somebody please, please
You gotta make me fight
You weren´t easy to find
But there was you, you, you

Down the line

She picked on me
When I was lonely
She picked on me
When I was down
She picked on me
It wasn´t easy
To pull me up
And to bring me around
She picked on me
When I was lonely
She kicked me when
I was down
She picked on me
Cause it was plain to see
Always in trouble
My life was a circus

And I was a clown

Somebody get on my side
Cause it ain´t easy to hide
Somebody get over here
Anytime, anywhere
Stay close and never go away

She picked on me
When I was lonely
She picked on me
When I was down
She picked on me
It wasn´t easy
To pull me up
And to bring me around
She picked on me
When I was lonely

Kicked me when
I was down
She picked on me
Cause it was plain to see
Always in trouble
My life was a circus
And I was a clown
