LYRICS

Laughin' boy (ha ha ha ha ha) That's what they used to call you Before you found a new love to take my place (Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha) Laughin' boy (ha ha ha ha ha) That's what they used to call you You always wore a smile upon your face But as I look at you now, I know that somehow The smile you're wearing is untrue Laughin' boy (laughin' boy) I think you're blue Your new love (your new love) She really must have hurt you She really must have filled your heart with pain (La la la la la la la la) 'Cause I know you well (know you well) & you could never fool me I know that somehow you're not the same As I look at you know, I know that somehow When you say you're happy, you're lying Laughin' boy (laughin' boy) I believe you've been crying (La la la la la la la la) Don't you know that it's true? I still love Just as much as I did before So laughin' boy (come on home) Come on home, laughin' boy (come on home) Come on home, laughin' boy (come on home) & smile once more
