Stayed Too Long

Stayed Too Long At The Fair (Live) - Bonnie Raitt

Lyrics by：Billy Barnes

Composed by：Billy Barnes

Jesus cried

Wept and died

I guess he went up to heaven

I've been downtown such a long

Long time

I'll never make it home by seven

Won't you come and take me home

I've been too long at the fair

And lord I just can't stand it anymore

I went down to chason's

Walked 'til my feet got sore

I never knew what laughin' was

'Til you walked out the door

Won't you come and take me home

I've been too long at the fair

And lord I just can't stand it anymore

You can give my soul to Abraham

Give my soul to saul

Give my bones to canada

My feet they don't hurt at all

I don't know who made the highway

I guess that's just my pride

But I have heard the prince of darkness

On his charger ride

Silver blade is gleamin'

The scales are in his hands

I swear another night is fallin'

Don't you lose another man

Won't you come and take me home

I've been too long at the fair

And lord I just can't stand it anymore

Lord I just can't stand it anymore
