Well I wasn't much to look at, strugglin' to smile
When she walked by that first time
Swallowed my fear and got my gumption up
And I vowed she would be mine.

Chorus
Got my pitching arm, workin' overtime charm
Gotta win the first prize.
Take a stab in the dark for a walk in the park
Gotta look into those eyes.
Whatever she saw in this lanky boy
I guess I'll never know
But the queen of the fair, took me unawares
And she walked away with the show.

solo

Now I made 16 for the second time
And she's still standing here
And every hot july at the county fair
There's a sweet smell in the air

Still I ain't much to look at, proud to smile
When she's walkin' by my side
Now I got no fear, got my whole world here
And she always will be mine.
