He's got jokes and a million dollar style
A stage and a story he can make the crowd roar
Yea he sure knows how to make a man smile
He'll put on a wig, or he'll dance a jig
And everyone for miles
Come to sit and laugh when the funny man, smiles
A full house tonight and he's got 'em laughing out loud
He sings them a song 'bout his crazy mom
And thanks them for coming out
When he leaves the stage his mind drifts away
To his wife and his kids and good times
When he's all alone, the funny man cries
"It ain't funny no more," says the funny man
This life I'm longing for is a house that's built on sinking sand
And where's the laughter, happy ever after?
I just don't understand
There's nothin' sadder than tears of a funny man
A house in the hills, a four-car parking garage
His face on the TV, Lord, it hasn't been easy, but he's finally at the top
But his family who loves him, they stayed in Tulsa
They visit every once in a while
Lately, that's the only time, that the funny man smiles
On Tuesday morning he wakes up and locks his house up tight
Aims his pickup toward that Oklahoma line
He says, "It ain't funny no more, I'm headed home"
This life I'm longing for, the soccer games and fishin' poles
And I've been missin' my little boy's kisses, I finally understand"
Through the tears that he still cries
The funny man smiles
And the funny man drives
