Roseville Fair lyrics

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.

And people gathered 'round, the bands were tuning,

I can hear them now, playin' "Comin' Through The Rye."

You were dressed in blue, you 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 met you,

And 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.

[Instrumental]

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.
