Working Without A Net Lyrics - Waylon Jennings

Well, the road can be a circus, a death defying act 

But the clowns don't come around no more since the monkeys off my back 

Now, I stand here on the stage, as the house lights fade to black 

Your love helps me forget, I'm working without a net 

Up on the high wire, I hear the crowd begin to call 

Some want you to fly, some want to see you fall 

Now and then I stumble, but I haven't fallen yet 

Your love helps me forget, I'm working without a net 

Well, I used to depend on some things I did not need 

I leaned on some crutches that kept me off my feet 

Standing here without them now, well, it scares me half to death 

Your love helps me forget, I'm working without a net 

Up on the high wire, I hear the crowd begin to call 

Some want you to fly, some want to see you fall 

Now and then I stumble, but I haven't fallen yet 

Your love helps me forget, I'm working without a net
