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
