Won't you take me out to the Danville Fair,
Where the ginger rolls are sweeter than the sweet
Oh, Danville Fair, Where the funny horse would ride us all for free,
You see, It would ride you and me
Please take me out to the Danville Fair,
Where the monkeys dance and they dance for all to see
I can't take you out to the Danville Fair,
Where the ginger rolls are sweeter than the sweet
On the Danville Fair, yes the funny horse would ride them all for free,
You see, just won't ride you and me
Best forget about the Danville Fair,
Yes the monkeys dance, but they just don't dance for us
No Danville Fair, no more fairs for the likes of us
They won't let us near for all the reasons of their own
I will try and go yet to the Danville Fair,
Taste the ginger rolls that are sweeter than the sweet
Just go up there to see the things, to ride the funny horse for free,
You see, will ride it just for free
I'll try and go to the Danville Fair,
I'll see the monkeys dance and they will dance for me
Oh Danville Fair, see you soon and I won't be long
Don't give a damn for all the reasons of their own
"Don't go to the Danville Fair, they'll arrest you for breaking the law..",
No, I will go, if the law is wrong i don't have to abide
They won't stop me now and if i have to i will fight
"Don't even try, Cause it's the fight you cannot win..."
"Don't go to the Danville Fair, you've got no power against the rank and file..",
If they don't let me go, what's next? Will they order me not to breath?
"You'll get in trouble there, that the horse and the monkeys just ain't worth...",
I'll go that's all, what am I worth if I don't even try?
