Lyrics: People everywhere Are marching to the fair Oh yo yo yo yo yo yo yo Children stop and stare Some women marching bare Oh yo yo yo yo yo yo yo You'll see everyone in town On their way to common ground To see the bands go round and round And if everything go right And no one make a fight They can go dancing through the night Excitement in the air For everyone who's there Oh yo yo yo yo yo yo yo No one have a care They letting down their hair Oh yo yo yo yo yo yo yo Some of them courting there Others cavorting there Some of them haughty there Most of them naughty there Watch out what you wear It only going to tear Oh yo yo yo yo yo yo yo Those that no in pair Might ask you for a share Oh yo yo yo yo yo yo yo All year you sad You work like man Keep you in line With jail or fine And if you talk Last mile you walk But today free They let you be People everywhere Are marching to the fair Oh yo yo yo yo yo yo yo Children stop and stare Some women marching bare Oh yo yo yo yo yo yo yo |
