V1.
Mama, take me down to the county fair.
I'm gonna see my darlin' there.
We jump on the Zip and the Ferris Wheel.
I can't explain how she makes me feel.

I do not drink and I do not rob,
I work all day at my Summer job.
Cuttin' that grass for a dollar square
To pay my way to the county fair.

CHORUS:
Oh my, tell me why
The good times come, and the good times die.
Take me 'round again and I'll meet you there
At the county fair.

V2.
Horseshoe and a rabbit's foot.
I'd press my luck if I thought you would.
All day long, well I don't care.
I'll wait for you at the county fair.

CHORUS:
Oh my, tell me why
The good times come, and the good times die.
Take me 'round again and I'll meet you there
At the county fair.

BRIDGE:
Well we get broke, and we get sad...
But I guess it really ain't that bad around here.
