Four Shadow - County Fair Love lyrics

rate me

It began in a 4H pavilion in southern Wisconsin

The warmth of the dairy sun, and the smell of the dairy air

Then I caught the eye of a sweet little rodeo princess

When I took her hand, I knew it was County Fair Love

I said "I've got it bad for you, you know I do

Everytime our eyes meet my heart takes a ride on the Tilt-A-Whirl

It's not the corndogs I ate that gave me this funny feeling

It's far more serious than that--this County Fair Love"

The heat of the moment was almost overpowering

The sweat of the Clydesdales and the roar of the crowd

The grandstand was full of admirers as I airbrushed your name 'cross my chest

There's nothing quite so romantic as County Fair Love

And I've got it bad for you, you know I do

Everytime our eyes meet my heart takes a ride on the Tilt-A-Whirl

It's not the corndogs I ate, for three meals a day,

That gave me this funny feeling

It's far more serious than that--it's County Fair Love

- monologue -

Now the sun's going down and the cheese curds are coming back up

But I won't be lonely now that you're gone

'Cause I have your likeness carved from twelve pounds of butter

(That's a lot of butter)

There's nothing so poignant and tragic as County Fair Love

'Cause I've got it bad for you, you know I do

Everytime our eyes meet my heart takes a ride on the Tilt-A-Whirl

It's not the corndogs I ate for three meals a day, three days in a row,

That gave me this funny feeling

It's far more serious than that--it's County Fair Love
