the tom green county fair

you know it's funny how certain things stick with you thru the years

like how it fells to be ten years old at the county fair

hotdog stand

when you're hungry hotdogs smell so doggone grand

hoppin' thru the sawdust

runnin' with my brothers

head to toe we're smilin'

at the tom greene county fair

rodeo

tom greene county fairs got one fine rodeo

the cowboys are the greatest

the clown he is so funny

you bust your britches laughing

at the tom greene county fair

well a sunday at the fair can make a memory more valuable than gold

especially when you're ten years old

ferris wheel

just like an airplane in the sky

that's how you feel

look down and see the people

wave your arms and holler

everybody's laughing at the tom greene county fair

night time comes

up there on the bandstand we see billy swan

everybody's clappin'

mum and pop are dancin'

sawdust is a flyin'

at the tom greene county fair

well a sunday at the fair can make a memory more valuable than gold

especially when you're ten years old

time to go

the pickup truck it rattles down the gravel road

and all of us kids sit backwards

lookin' thru the dustcloud

at the lights and the laughter at the tom greene county fair

well step right up and see the three eyed malarkey brothers

smoking one big round cigar fresh from havana

see the one legged chicken do the footrace with a sack of.
