Been workin' like a dawg slavin' on the fence line stretchin' those wires tight
Diggin' and tappin' and sweatin' in the sunshine but I get off tonight
I got a date with a girl a perdy ranchers daughter green as her golden hair
Gonna pick her up at eight after some soap and water
And we're headin' to the county fair
Well there's a full moon in the western sky and there's magic in the air
Ain't nothin' I know of can make you fall in love like a night at the county fair
[ guitar ]
Well we walked through the midway the lights and the laughter
She puts her little hand in mine
Well she don't act like she knows what I'm after
But tonight I'm gonna make her mine
You know the tunnel of love well it ain't my style
So I'm gonna take on the ferris wheel
Way up in the sky with the stars in her eyes I'm gonna tell her just how I feel
Well there's a full moon
[ guitar ]
Well I know Monday mornin' I'll be back on the fence-line but it'll be alright
Cause that perdy little girl says she's gonna be all mine
I'm gonna see her next Friday night
Well there's a full moon
