Ringling, Ringling 

By: Jimmy Buffett 

1974 

Ringlin', Ringlin' slippin' away 

Only forty people livin' there today 

Streets are dusty and the bank has been torn down 

It's a dyin' little town 



Church windows broken, that place ain't been used in years 

Jail don't have a sheriff or a cell 

And electric trains they run by maybe once or twice a month 

Easin' it on down the Muscle Shell 



Chorus: 

Ringlin', Ringlin' slippin' away 

Only forty people livin' there today 

'Cause the streets are dusty and the bank has been torn down 

It's a dyin' little town 



And across from the bar there's a pile of beer cans 

Been there twenty-seven years 

Imagine all the heartaches and tears 

In twenty-seven years of beer 



So we hopped back in the rent-a-car 

And we hit the cruise control 

Pretty soon the town was out of site 

Though we left behind a fat barmaid, a cowboy, and a dog 

Bracin' for a Ringlin' Friday night 



Chorus: 

Ringlin', Ringlin' you're just slippin' away 

I wonder how many people will be there a year from today 

'Cause the streets are dusty and the bank has been torn down 

It's a dyin' little town 

Yeah, it's a dyin' little town
