Okay. I been a good boy. I checked all the usual net resources. No luck.

Might anybody have the full lyrics, maybe even chords for "Tom Green County Fair". I had a recording of it by David Rea on one of his first LPs.

First verse, I recall is:

"Hot dog stand!
When you're hungry hot dogs smell so dog-gone grand
Skippin' throught he sawdust, runnin' with my brothers
Head-to-toe in smilin' at the Tom Green County Fair."

While I'm at it, might any of you know if Mr. Rea has any web presence? I know he was performing at the Home County Festival in London, Ontario a few years ago (which I couldn't attend), but otherwise he's seems to be darned elusive.

H'ep me Mudcat, h'ep me!
