Lyrics
Inside the pocket of a clown
Is a sad place to hang around
Just watching smiles turn into frowns
Inside the pocket of a clown
Inside the heartache of a fool
You'll learn things they don't teach in school
And lessons there can be real cruel
Inside the heartache of a fool
Hollow lies
Make a thin disguise
As little drops of truth
Fall from your eyes
Hollow lies
Make a thin disguise
As little drops of truth
Fall from your eyes
Inside a memory from the past
Lives every love that didn't last
And sweet dreams can start to fade real fast
Inside a memory from the past
Is a real sad place to hang around
Inside the pocket of a clown

Dwight Yoakam, a country music sensation and cultural icon, stands as a cornerstone of American music history. With a career spanning decades, Yoakam has woven his way into the fabric of our musical landscape with unforgettable classics like "Guitars, Cadillacs," "Fast as You," and "A Thousand Miles from Nowhere." His unique blend of country, rock, and honky-tonk has earned him a dedicated fan base worldwide.

[@muddybrookrambler]

If contemporary country had this sound and humor I’d be a fan. Instead, I’m just a Dwight Yoakum fan.

[@johnclarke61]

Same here my friend 😂😊

[@frankraborn7941]

By far the most underrated country artist

[@wesleyfeltner5946]

One of the best country singers of all time. Right up there with George, and Johnny.

[@1957kwick]

Don't forget Garth.

[@maryward6282]

Country music does not get any better than Dwight. Magnificent voice!!!!

[@Jake-jc6xs]

Love me some Dwight!!! Took the wife to the show in Spokane a few months ago, 4th concert of the summer, and by far the best.

[@MegaSister22]

This one is by far is my favourite although at times it's tough to pick one!!! Dwight has a unique sound that noone else has !!!

[@pepejuan2924]

One of the best singers ever and a good actor as well 👍😁💪🏻🇺🇸

[@johngusdon3537]

Where have I been -- rather must have had my eyes closed, lazily wasting this life of mine. Never heard this song before and it was released 29 years ago. Just fabulous -- and so damn much better than 99% of music one hears today. What a great writer, singer, and what a beautiful video!!!

[@helenastokes3694]

Love this song by Dwight, and everything he sings.xx❤❤

[@PBG345]

I keep coming back to hear this. "Timeless" classic. LOL.

[@ibosquez5238]

swsalem I added it to my Playlist so can listen to it all the time. Great music. OLD BUT GOLD.

[@bonniefriend436]

Love this song! Dwight is a genius 😘😘😘

[@ibosquez5238]

[@bwhllh]

No matter what you think the boy can SING!

[@patriciamcdonald1397]

Best singer ever

[@cmqguy]

I love that vocal part of this song where he goes hollow lies. Awesome switch of cords. What a great song of Dwight’s. This is one of his biggest hits ever.

[@normandrego6949]

Dwight is a delight to watch singing.

[@heatherlowe7330]

First time I heard this one but I love it! Dwight Yoakam is SO underrated it's mindboggling! I have loved "Guitars, Cadillacs" "Honky Tonk Man" and "Streets of Bakersfield" since I was a toddler, how is he not more well known?!

[@jeanbest2721]

I can listen all day long .love it.

[@dixiedragon54]

He takes rockabilly to another level LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE his sound - he was a BABY here

Just discovered this incredible singer. Love his videos his sense of humour. Lot of catching up to do and enjoying every new song and interview.

[@1952FMS]

I do believe this is what country is about. Great voice, a wonderful little swing melody and Dwight's fine voice,,thx for posting..

[@2BLAKEB]

Great singer and video!!!!!!!

[@mjaxdes]

Joke is on you! (not you) the music industry. I'll never forget one afternoon when this finally got onto fm radio.. I was in my garage.. Dwight's first big song went viral on my country station in lower central PA (lanco) how they mocked him... said it was strange country music! Little did they know he was doing Bucks Owens, Johnny, the Possum, Texas Tornadoes -- all at ONCE!!

[@texannaanna1968]

+mary noeldner wish the stations would play more of Dwight Yokem songs.

[@b_uppy]

I knew exactly what he was doing. He was hitting ALL the right notes!

[@percys9427]

Yes in the mid 1980's they[Nashville]said he was too Country for Country!!!!! Imo he is too good for Nashville!!!!!!

[@TheMilady10]

Well said, mjaxdes!!!

[@lawlisrn]

What town? I grew up in Littlestown, PA. Seeing Dwight here tonight in Western Colorado where country is still alive!!

[@martinpaquet9958]

Love the song and the woman in the middle

[@Dreyah_42]

He makes me happy with his songs ❤️💋

[@patriciamcdonald1397]

One of my favourite songs with every other one of his songs. Just love love love ❤️ Dwight’s voice ❤️🎸🎼🔥❤️

[@windsong1a]

My favorite Dwight Yoakam song and what a FUN video! It never gets old!

[@greg0124]

Great song Dwight. I've always been a fan. I'm a professional singer songwriter myself (except I play in hotel lobbies), and I too love Buck. You are among the best.

[@sharronperdue7167]

I love his style!

[@jodiejones9872]

A Bakersfield girl may move away but always have the Dwight in my heart.. Add one more break-up .Add to the river of tears.

[@ericsamuelson5656]

This one is my favorite growing up in the 90s. The girls singing reminds me of 50s & early 60s rock music.

i'm so surprized this fellow has not been nominated for a gramy.we can hope for 2015 gramy nite.if only some real bigtime people in the knoe position of these awards would do the' a good deed and nominate him.that would be so cool.many songs would qualify him like it's crying time again,crazy little thing called love'. & many more.

[@OldMusicSoul]

That is surprising? I think his older stuff was the best "Turn it on Turn it up" "Little Ways" "This Time" "Guitars & Cadillacs"are my favorites.

[@laurenaryanna4876]

[@rickyrichards7596]

@@dollyvictoria3165 Thank you he was special, I never pass on a opportunity to brag on him. If you don't mind... My Granddad served in WW I. In WW II my Dad trained at Ft. Sill in Lawton, OK. in the Artillery but realized he would soon be deaf so, he transferred to Combat Engineers; a Sapper. He went back into the Philippines with Gen. MacArthur, and fought from island to island all the way to Japan. He was one of the first Sappers to go into Japan after the Atomic Bombs were dropped. (He told me some of the horrible sights he saw there.) He had to be tested every two years for the rest of his life for radiation. After the war he was in the Army Reserves, he was the first man to sign up for 30 years in the Texas Army National Guard. He turned down an Officer’s Commission because he would have had to take a cut in pay. He would disappear for months at a time when he went to the Army’s Chemical, Biological and Nuclear Warfare Schools. He was called up for Active Duty during the Cuban Missile Crisis! He was Stationed at Fort Polk in Louisiana. He was also the Chief Intelligence Officer. He even volunteered to go to Nam with one of his Lieutenants. The Lt. said, “Sgt./Major… thank you for the offer but you fought your war, why don’t you sit this one out?” Dad retired as E9 Command Sargent/Major, Number One Ranking NCO in the State of Texas! He was buried, with Full Military Honors, at Arlington Memorial Cemetery; North/East of Oklahoma City! I miss him, he was my Hero!
