circus song help

well hello,

i have been driven nuts by snatches of lyrics to a song
i have very little information about.

o great and mighty dopers help me please!

the snatches are ( as i remember them) :

" …there were lion tamers…fire eaters…sons of bitches and reevers of every kind…"

the only hints i have are that i seem to remember the song from the 70s and that it was sung by a fem with a strong voice; perhaps it had the words " in my dream"
somewhere.

p.s. it is all the fault of firefly and there damned reevers!

Googlewhack isn’t coming up with anything, mate. You sure you got the lyric right? :confused:

er…no i’m not sure of anything except the sob’s and the reevers line.

i’m a sad sorry little man

sniff

Oh, you are not. :stuck_out_tongue: Can you remember what the voice sounded like?

how about a cross between joan baez and helen reddy?!

i am off to try and eradicate the tune from my head.

hopefully when i return…
