Come on boys let's go to the fair
See the funny sights and the cool night air
Grasshopper kissing the old black crow
Road hog red do the dose do

More funny things than you ever did see
Ringtail cooms, monkeys in the trees
Pussy cat combing the tomcat's hair
Come on boys let's go to the fair

Had a banjo picking rooster the cockiest of 'em all
Strutted on the stage in his bib overalls
Close behind was old fiddling bear
Bluegrass music by a rooster and a bear

* Refrain

Old mother goose wore fancy clothes
High heeled slippers and fancy clothes
An old bare possum in his underwear
Killed himself a laughing at the county fair

* Refrain
