Órla Fallon - Roseville Fair

May they dance all night

To the fiddle and the banjo

The way we did

At the Roseville Fair

Oh, the night was clear

The stars were shining

The moon came up

So quiet in the sky

The people gathered 'round

The band was tuning

I can hear them now

Playing "Comin' Through the Rye"

I was dressed in blue

You said I looked so lovely

Just a gentle flower

Of a small-town girl

You took my hand

And we danced to the music

With a single smile

You became my world

And we danced all night

To the fiddle and the banjo

Their drifting tunes

Seemed to fill the air

So long ago

But I still remember

When we fell in love

At the Roseville Fair

We courted well

We courted dearly

We'd sit for hours

On the front porch chair

And a year went by

From the time I've met you

That I made you mine

At the Roseville Fair

And we danced all night

To the fiddle and the banjo

Their drifting tunes

Seemed to fill the air

So long ago

But I still remember

When we fell in love

At the Roseville Fair

So here's a song

For all the lovers

And here's a tune

That they can share

May they dance all night

To the fiddle and the banjo

The way we did

At the Roseville Fair

May they dance all night

To the fiddle and the banjo

The way we did

At the Roseville Fair
