BAMPTON FAIR
(Paul Wilson)

Are you going to Bampton Fair,
Get your beer down, bob, we're moving --
Are you going to Bampton Fair, boy?
I'll go to the fair like we always done,
Get in the car and give it a run,
Get a few friends and have some fun.
All at the Bampton Fair, boy,
All at the Bampton Fair.

Who did you see at Bampton Fair,
Who did you see at Bampton Fair, boy?
Young ones, old ones, me and you,
Travelers, farmers, visitors too,
They even had a T.V. crew,
What did you drink at Bampton Fair,
What did you drink at Bampton Fair, boy?
Twenty-one pints and one for me head,
Or a scotch or a brandy or a pot instead,
All served up in a muddy old shed,

What did you buy at Bampton Fair,
What did you buy at Bampton Fair, boy?
A crocker set that's got no cups,
A brand new shirt that's got no cuffs,
A bloomin' old grai that's got no puff,

What did you get at Bampton Fair,
What did you get at Bampton Fair, boy?
Two black eyes and a broken nose,
Caught a cold and I damn near froze,
A bump on me head and I tore me clothes,
Will you go next year to Bampton Fair,
Will you go next year to Bampton Fair, boy?
If the pubs are open and the beer is free,
If the landlord says, ``It's all on me.''
If I can't think of anywhere else to be,
@drink
