“ Hip, hooray fer the county fair!
Bet yer whiskers I’ll be there
Ter see the cows an’th’ big prize calf,
An’ all o’ th’ funny things, an’ laugh.
Farmers come th’ wagonful---
Street cars got all they can pull.
Jim rid in on th’ old gray mare---
Hip, Hooray fer’ th’ county fair!
Hip, hooray fer’ th’ county fair!
See them pumpkins---I declare
Bigger’n tubs! By ginger, I
Would like a piece o’pumpkin pie.
Comr on, fellers, whoop her up!
Let’s cut loose an’ make things jump,
Kick yer heels up in th’ air
Hip, hooray fer’ th’ county fair!”
