Too Long at the Fair - 2008 Remaster
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 Jason's
Walked till my feet got sore
But 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
You can give my soul to Abraham
Give my soul to Saul
You give my bones to Canada
My teeth, 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 that 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
Lord, I just can't stand it anymore
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 Jason's
Walked till my feet got sore
But 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
You can give my soul to Abraham
Give my soul to Saul
You give my bones to Canada
My teeth, 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 that 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
Lord, I just can't stand it anymore
