Tell the boys in the back, that Dan he's crashed his Cadillac

he ain't hurt nobody, least he wasn't drinking

He was just outside Detroit, you know those roads

they are all broke, you can't get anywhere

there ain't no point in drivin

he's flying in today, all around the USA

he's seen every state at least twice



Who's gonna break the news that his lady's run loose 

yeah it's getting around

I gotta tell him the truth but I don't wanna do it 

don't wanna bring him down 

Cuz being down with some Jersey Clowns can almost drive you insane



What a shame he's been away 

he's worked so hard to pay those bills

he's got two kids from his marriage before

and I wonder what makes him stay

you know it ain't the first time she's played him like that

a thousand times, it won't be the last



Who's gonna break the news that his lady's run loose 

yeah it's getting around

I gotta tell him the truth but I don't wanna do it 

don't wanna bring him down 

Cuz being down with some Jersey Clowns can almost drive you insane



Tell the boys in the back if they've got some room for Dan I'm sure he's be grateful as he's coming home today



Who's gonna break the news that his lady's run loose 

yeah it's getting around

I gotta tell him the truth but I don't wanna do it 

don't wanna bring him down 

Cuz being down with some Jersey Clowns can almost drive you insane

insane
