Well, the county fair left quite a mess in the county yard | |
Kids with eyes as big as dollars rode all the rides | |
Strip artists and con artists put on quite a show | |
And made some money then left town | |
Where they went | |
I don’t know? | |
Hey, all you suckers | |
I heard a fat woman say | |
Come on in for fifty cents, you can stay in here all day | |
So I took a chance, | |
I went inside | |
Wasn’t much there to see | |
So I ask her for my money back and she just smiled at me | |
Saw Princess | |
Tonyika taken off all her clothes | |
Rode some rides and played some games | |
Saw the Wild | |
Man from Barneo | |
There was a black man playing the blues | |
Talked to some friends hadn’t seen in a while | |
Threw a football through a hoop | |
Well, I saw them loading up their trucks, taking down the rides | |
Folding up all the tents, there’s a full moon in the sky | |
Some were laughing some were cussing as they worked | |
Saw one of them making love to a local girl | |
I was minding my own business, it was quarter after two | |
When a fella walked up and said hey man, | |
I remember you | |
And then he shoved me and pulled out his knife | |
Stuck me three times in the chest and | |
I died that night | |
For the like of me | |
I can’t remember who he was | |
And why he’d put a knife in me in that dusty parking lot | |
Everybody said what a shame it was | |
But he knew better than staying out past twelve o’clock | |
Some people put no value on a human life | |
And there are places we all go that just ain’t safe at night | |
If somebody do this to me they might do it to you | |
So be careful where you go and what you say or do | |
Oh, the county fair left quite a mess in the county yard |
Well, the county fair left quite a mess in the county yard | |
Kids with eyes as big as dollars rode all the rides | |
Strip artists and con artists put on quite a show | |
And made some money then left town | |
