The Tom Green County Fair

Roger Miller · Roger Miller Greatest Hits - 3 Cds Plus Bonus Documentary Dvd [2007]

You know, it's funny how certain things stick with

you through the years, like how it feels to be 10 years

old at the county fair



Hot dog stand, when you're hungry, hot dogs smell so doggone grand



Hopping through the sawdust,

running with my brothers, head to toe we're smiling

at the Tom Green County Fair



Rodeo, Tom Green County Fair's got one fine rodeo



The cowboys are the greatest, the clown he is so funny



You bust your britches laughing at the Tom Green County Fair



Well, a Sunday at the fair can make a memory more valuable than gold



Especially when you're 10 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 grinning at the Tom Green County Fair



Nighttime comes, up there on the bandstand we see Billy Swan



Everybody's clapping, Mom and Pop are dancing



Sawdust is flying at the Tom Green County Fair



Well, a Sunday at the fair can make a memory more valuable than gold



Especially when you're 10 years old



Time to go



The pickup truck, it rattles down the gravel road



And all of us kids sit backwards,

looking through the dust cloud at the lights and the

laughter, at the Tom Green County Fair
