It's a square dance Mr Marshall
It's a square dance on the floor
It's a square dance Mr Perkins
It's a square dance to be sure, to be sure
Everybody, grab partners

I'm just a clown that used to run around
I used to have a million friends
I used to start where everybody ends
But I just give my best to my friends

I've done my shows. Everybody knows
I nearly sold all my clothes
One man can give; another has to lend
So I just give my best to my friends
And so you should

And when you think that your life isn't right
You know the day isn't always like night
You've had your peace now it's time for you to fight
Just give your best to your friends

I'm just a clown that used to run around
I used to have a million friends
I used to start where everybody ends
So I just give my best to my friends

And when you think that your life isn't right
You know the day isn't always like night
You've had your peace now it's time for you to fight
Just give your best to your friends

And when you think that your life isn't right
You know the day isn't always like night
You've had your peace now it's time for you to fight
Just give your best to your friends
Just give your best to your friends

Bee Gees

The three Gibb brothers were very close as children and spent most of their time together. Barry was born in 1946, and his twin brothers Maurice and Robin were born in 1949. Together, they went on to become one of the most popular bands of the 1970s.

The Bee Gees have sold more than 220 million records worldwide, and functioned as a group almost continuously from 1958 to 2003, when Maurice Gibb suddenly died during a coma.
