Pretty much what the Post titles says, I remember maybe runaways joining a circus, and someone dick van dyke-esk singing a song to them about , “I would if i could but i can’t, i [something something something] but i shan’t”
It was older, maybe 1950s, in color, and in english.
3 Ring Circus with Dean Martin and Jerry Lewis?

I don’t think so, but I will definitely watch this one anyways! thx!
Those lyrics remind me of one sung in the Disney film “Toby Tyler.” I don’t remember much of it, just a little tune and “Biddle-fee-fee” in the chorus. I hope that helps.
