All of the boys from miles around come to the fair at Sedgefield town,
They don't need money they don't need brass,
They all come down to find themselves a lass,
The girls of Sedgefield Fair, me boys, the girls of Sedgefield Fair.
Are you thinking back to when you were a lad,
All the right good times we had,
Spittin on your boots and combin on your hair,
Then off down the hill to Sedgefield Fair
Well the toffs and the nobs and the lords all come
They eat roast beef and they drink good rum
Tinkers, plowboys, sailors in delight,
They all come down to dance all night.
You can buy hot lamb at a penny for a slice,
A big enough piece to fill you up twice
Roast and bread that you can share with a friend
You're gonna eat well if you eat all you spend
I saw a six foot bear and a three foot man,
A woman from Spain with a beard on her chin
Seen a lot of sights put me head in a whirl
The best of all is a Sedgefield Girl
So listen well as I sing my song
Take my advice and you can't go wrong
Take me well, you'll have the time of your life,
You never know your luck, you may even find a wife
