about

“Animal Fair” adapted by Red Yarn from the traditional “Animal Fair” and “The John B. Sails,” as published in Carl Sandburg’s The American Songbag (1927). New lyrics by Andy Furgeson, 2015.

lyrics

I went to the animal fair
The birds and the beasts were there
The old raccoon by the light of the moon
Was combing his auburn hair

My hound dog chased the skunk
She sprayed him and man it stunk
Which woke up the bear who went on a tear
And chased us up the Oak Tree trunk

The party went all night
Scattered at the sun’s first light
My granddaddy had to come and drag me away
To make me go home
Don’t make me go home
This is best trip I’ve ever been on
Cuz this is the wildest I ever have gone
