If you wanna go crazy and act like a 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 some place it don't belong,

Don't you 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,

Remember you'll do the lying there!

When you buttered your bread,

Don't expect me to eat your share!

If you're gonna play horses and blow your dough,

Don't you run 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!

So the chick you left me for is tired of you,

Baby, why call me 'cause I'm tired too?

That's your red wagon,

That's your red wagon,

So just keep draggin' your red wagon along!

Now you've finally learned

That you get burned when you play with fire!

Don't come running to me,

You can't use me for your spare tyre!

If you don't have love songs to fit my key,

Baby, don't sing your blues to me!

That's your red wagon,

That's your red wagon,

So just keep draggin' your red wagon along!
