WALTON STREET FAIR
(Jo Gaggs)

Shouting and smells hang over the town,
From Ella Street, Chants Ave, all the way down,
Hull shakes again as they come from all round,
down to the Walton Street fair.

Chorus: Down the road the kids all tear,
       Hurrying now to get to Hull fair,
       Come with me and we'll go there,
       Bound for great larks at Walton street fair.

Close your eyes, scream loud as you can
on waltsers and bombers too rough for our nan.
Roller coasters are part of the plan
for boys to grab girls and a woman her man.

Chorus

Thieves mud and litter all over the place,
pretty girls glitter with ribbons and lace,
There's more than enough to well stuff your face,
down at the Walton Street Fair.

Chorus

Watch what you do shouts a fella' in pain,
you hit me in the bum don't you do that again.
But it's his own fault and the truth is quite plain,
he's nailed down his cans so the shots ricochet.

Chorus

Try hard to win that big teddy bear,
Cuddly ducks, coconuts, something to share.
Got to bring goodies back home from the fair,
prizes and trophies because you were there.

Chorus
Repeat chorus.
