Roseville Fair Songtext
von Liam Clancy

Oh the night was clear
The stars were shining
The moon came up
So quiet in the sky
The people gathered round
The bands were tuning
I can hear them now
Playing coming 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
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
In the front porch chair
A year went by
From the time that 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


So here's a song
For all of the lovers
Here′s a tune
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
