If you wanna go crazy, be the clown
Be the laughing stock all over town
That's your red wagon
That's your red wagon
So just keep draggin' your red wagon along

If you stick your nose someplace it don't belong
Doncha come to me if things go wrong
That's your red wagon
That's your red wagon
So just keep draggin your red wagon along

When you're making your bed, don't forget who'll do the lyin' there
And when you butter your bread
Don't expect me to eat your share

If you wanna play the horses
Doncha come to me if they don't show
That's your red wagon, that's your red wagon
So just keep draggin your red wagon along

Now you've finally learned you'll get burned if you play with fire
So don't come runnin to me you can't use me for your spare tire

If you wanna sing me love songs, don't know my key
Don't you come singin' the blues to me

That's your red wagon, oh, that's your red wagon
So just keep draggin your red wagon along

That's your red wagon, your red wagon, oh, your red wagon, yea, your red wagon
So just keep draggin your red wagon along
