Funny Song Lyrics: "State Fair Woman"

Song: State Fair Woman
Artist: Larry Weaver
CD: Looking for Fun


I was walking by myself all around the state fair
Smells of cotton candy and corn dogs drifted through the air
I was just looking for fun, not looking for romance
But I saw a fine young lady and I had to take a chance

She worked there at that booth where they try and guess your weight.
So I reached down for my wallet and stepped on up to the plate
One sixty was her guess and she was mighty near.
If I hadn’t eaten those turkey legs, and that elephant ear

She yelled, “We got a winner, now come pick your prize”
But I’d found just what I wanted when I gazed into her eyes
The moonlight reflected off the gold in her front tooth
And guided me to love right by that polish sausage booth.

Chorus
She’s my state fair woman, she’s my carny queen
She had one lazy eye, but most all of her teeth.
She’s my state fair woman, she’s my carny girl
She took me for a ride on that love Tilt a Whirl.

She wore snakeskin cowboy boots and a denim mini-skirt
With cigarettes rolled in the sleeve of her Dixie Chicks t-shirt
She stood about 5 foot three, or six feet if you count her bangs
We started walking round the fair and saw some crazy thangs:

A tiny horse, a giant pig, man this was one wild date.
A huge Taco Bell dog and a Travis Tritt license plate
As we strolled down the midway my heart was filled with pride
Bought a big ol’ roll of tickets, just hoping for a ride

Chorus
She’s my state fair woman, she’s my carny queen
She had one lazy eye, but most all of her teeth.
She’s my state fair woman, she’s my carny girl
She took me for a ride on that love Tilt a Whirl.

I asked if she would be my wife
She said “How can I leave this carny life?
You see, the bearded lady is my mother.
And the strongman is my daddy and my brother.”

Chorus
She’s my state fair woman, she’s my carny queen
She had one lazy eye, but most all of her teeth.
She’s my state fair woman, she’s my carny girl
She took me for a ride on that love Tilt a Whirl.
