Only Man On Coney Island
Lyricist：Mae Moore
The day they shut down the carnival
I had nowhere to go
I heard about some work stateside
A circus run, might be fun
So I left my red clay home
Hitchhiked to New York City
Bright lights on the river
Liberty, deliver me
I'm so far from Heaven and I'm all alone
When the last boat leaves tonight
I'm the only man on Coney Island
I got the job because I'm strong
They don't care where I come from
No, they prefer not to know
Incase I crack like Jack before me
Suicide is what they meant

Beneath the double Ferris wheel
Yes, it can get lonely here
Without my wife and family near
I'm so far from Heaven and I'm all alone
When the last boat leaves tonight
I'm the only man on Coney Island
On the boardwalk promenade lovers trade their promises
Beneath the starry lights shining with artifice
It's been twenty years, it seems just like yesterday
I haven't seen Canada, time just crept away
I'm so far from Heaven and I'm all alone
When the last boat leaves tonight
I'm so far from Heaven and I'm all alone
When the last star leaves the sky
I'm the only man on Coney Island
