Too Long at The Fair Lyrics

Jesus cried, wept and died I guess He went up to heaven I’ve been downtown such a long, long time I’ll never make it home by seven
Won’t You come and take me home? I’ve been too long at the fair And, Lord, I just can’t stand it anymore
Well, I went down to Chason’s Walked till my feet got sore I never knew what laughin’ was Till you walked out the door
Won’t You come and take me home? I’ve been too long at the fair And, Lord, I just can’t stand it anymore
Well, you can give my soul to Abraham Give my soul to Saul Give my bones to Canada My feet they don’t hurt at all
I don’t know who made the highway I guess that’s just my pride But I have heard the prince of darkness On his charger ride
The silver blade is gleamin’ The scales are in his hands I swear another night is fallin’ Don’t you lose another man
Won’t You come and take me home? I’ve been too long at the fair And, Lord, I just can’t stand it anymore
