Skeeter Davis - The Face of a Clown video free download

Blueberry Hill (1965)

Beautiful sad little song by Skeeter Davis. It was written by Skeeter's sister Carolyn Penick and recorded in March 1964. Released on the RCA Camden album mentioned above.

Lyric:

It's hard for me to smile I feel like crying

Yet I always manage to grin

Friends won't know the pain that I feel

Or the misery that I'm in

Everyone thinks I'm so happy

For I smile and never frown

But looks are deceiving and nobody knows

The hurt behind the face of a clown

I've got my pride and my tears I'll hide

Whenever you are around

You'll never may know you hurt me so

For I have a face of a clown

I'll try to conceal this pain that I feel

I can't let it get me down

You won't have the pleasure of knowing

The hurt behind the face of a clown

(You won't have the pleasure of knowing)

The hurt behind the face of a clown
