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

'Cause 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 she's gone from sight

You'll find you loved her

Became a joker

(Repeat Chorus)
