Been workin' like a dawg slavin' on the fence line stretchin' those wires tight Diggin' and tappin' and sweatin' in the sunshine but I get off tonight I got a date with a girl a perdy ranchers daughter green as her golden hair Gonna pick her up at eight after some soap and water And we're headin' to the county fair Well there's a full moon in the western sky and there's magic in the air Ain't nothin' I know of can make you fall in love like a night at the county fair [ guitar ] Well we walked through the midway the lights and the laughter
She puts her little hand in mine Well she don't act like she knows what I'm after But tonight I'm gonna make her mine You know the tunnel of love well it ain't my style So I'm gonna take on the ferris wheel Way up in the sky with the stars in her eyes I'm gonna tell her just how I feel Well there's a full moon... [ guitar ] Well I know Monday mornin' I'll be back on the fence-line but it'll be alright Cause that perdy little girl says she's gonna be all mine I'm gonna see her next Friday night Well there's a full moon...
