Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] I said the joker is a wanted man He makes his way all across the land I see him siftin' through the sand So I'll tell you all the story 'bout the joker and the thief in the night [Verse 2] He's always laughing in the midst of power Always living in the final hour There is always sweet in sour So we are not goin' home [Chorus] Can you see the joker flying over As she's standing in the field of clover Watching out everyday? I wonder what would happen if he took her away [Verse 3] What you see, well, you might not know You get the feelin' comin' after the glow The vagabond is a-moving slow So I'll tell you all the story 'bout the joker and the thief in the night [Verse 4] All the people that you see in the night Hold their dreams up to the light The wilder beast is searching for sight And we are not going home [Chorus] A-can you see the joker flying over As she's standing in the field of clover Watching out everyday? I wonder what would happen if he took her away [Instrumental Bridge] [Outro] I said the joker is a wanted man Makes his way all across the land See him sifting through the sand So I'll tell you all the story 'bout the joker and the thief I said, I'll tell you the story 'bout the joker and the thief I said, tell the story 'bout the joker and the thief in the night
