Answer
 Wow.   I am going to take a wild stab at this, and give you the only answer that comes to mind.   I will be surprised if this is the song,  but I think it might be "The Show Must Go On" by Three Dog Night.  
 Please let me know if this is the song you are talking about.  I am curious to know if this is it.
 The song has a carnival like sound because it has an organ in it that sounds like a peanut wagon.

I can answer general questions about rock era bands, record labels they were on, and names of songs. Often I can tell the name of the record company that released a song, as well as the name of the song, and the year of release based on some of the lyrics. I grew up during the rock era and I am a musician myself, and always read the album and 45 info for production credits as well as lineups. One of the chat rooms I go to is quite amused at my ability to name a song along with it`s year of release and record label. I was also a record collector for years.
