lyrics

By John Prine, Pat McLaughlin & Dan Auerbach

The dark and distant drumming
The pounding of the hooves
The silence of everything that moves

Late at night you'll see them
Decked out in shiny jewels
The coming of the caravan of fools

Like the wings of a dove
The waiter's white glove
Seems to shimmer by the light of the pool

Some dull, blinding winter
When you can't help but lose
You're running with the caravan of fools

Love and devotion
Deep as any ocean
Don't play by anybody's rules

With your carousel of horses
And your unforeseen forces
You're running with the caravan of fools

Caravan of fools, caravan of fools
You're running with the caravan of fools
