Too Long at the Fair

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 I went down to Jason's walked 'til my feet got sore But I never knew what laughin' was 'Til you walked out the door Won't you come and take me home I've been too long at the fair 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 Lord, I just can't stand it anymore Lord, I just can't stand it anymore
