County Fair - John Mellencamp[00:00:00]
Well the County Fair[00:00:20]
Left quite a mess[00:00:22]
In the county yard[00:00:24]
Kids with eyes[00:00:26]
As big as dollars[00:00:26]
Rode all the rides[00:00:28]
Strip artists[00:00:30]
And con artists[00:00:32]
Put on quite a show[00:00:33]
And made some money[00:00:35]
Then left town[00:00:37]
Where they went[00:00:38]
I don't know[00:00:38]
Hey all you suckers[00:00:49]
I heard a fat woman say[00:00:51]
Come on in for fifty cents[00:00:54]
You can stay in here all day[00:00:56]
So I took a chance[00:00:59]
I went inside[00:01:00]
Wasn't much there to see[00:01:01]
So I asked her[00:01:04]
For my money back[00:01:05]
And she just smiled at me[00:01:06]
Saw Princess Tonyika[00:01:12]
Taken off all her clothes[00:01:15]
Rode some rides[00:01:17]
And played some games[00:01:18]
Saw the Wild Man from Barneo[00:01:20]
There was a black man[00:01:22]
Playing the blues[00:01:25]
Talked to some friends[00:01:27]
I hadn't seen in a while[00:01:28]
Through a football[00:01:30]
Through a hoop[00:01:30]
Well I saw[00:01:36]
Them loading up their trucks[00:01:36]
Taking down the rides[00:01:38]
Folding up all the tents[00:01:41]
There's a full moon in the sky[00:01:43]
Some were laughing[00:01:46]
Some were cussing[00:01:47]
As they worked[00:01:49]
Saw one of them making love[00:01:51]
To a local girl[00:01:54]
I was minding[00:01:59]
My own business[00:02:00]
It was quarter after two[00:02:02]
When a fella walked up[00:02:04]
And said[00:02:05]
Hey man[00:02:06]
I remember you[00:02:07]
And then he shoved me[00:02:10]
And pulled out his knife[00:02:12]
Stuck me three times[00:02:14]
In the chest[00:02:15]
And I died that night[00:02:17]
For the like of me[00:02:28]
I can't remember[00:02:30]
Who he was[00:02:31]
And why he'd put[00:02:33]
A knife in me[00:02:34]
In the dusty parking lot[00:02:35]
Everybody said[00:02:38]
What a shame it was[00:02:41]
But he knew better[00:02:43]
Than staying out[00:02:44]
Past twelve o'clock[00:02:46]
Some people put no value[00:02:56]
On a human life[00:02:59]
And there are places we all go[00:03:01]
That just ain't safe at night[00:03:04]
If somebody would do this to me[00:03:06]
They just might do it to you[00:03:08]
So be careful where you go[00:03:11]
And what you say or do[00:03:13]
Well the County Fair[00:03:24]
Left quite a mess[00:03:26]
In the county yard[00:03:28]
