At the Fair Lyrics

by Garrison Keillor

Go to an old church dining hall

Scrambled eggs and ham and all

The Lutheran coffee you can tolerate

At the fair

Take the skyride over the trees

Smell the hot dogs and the cheese

Hear the barker’s liturgies

At the fair

City folks and old cowhands

Geezers and teenage romance

Horse patrol and country bands

At the fair

Corn dogs, hot dogs, take your pick

Chocolate covered bacon - ick

Tater tots on a stickĀ 

At the fair
