Blood on the Saddle - Johnnie's at the Fair Lyrics

I hear the soft wind blowing out a song
I've been here waiting for so long
Promises he made, but he isn't in
Why is Johnny so long at the fair

That evening sun yesterday did set
Johnny packed up and told me not to fret
Swore to bring me ribbons for my hair
Well, he's too busy dancing at the fair

He told me I'm his love for life
Promised me that soon I'd be his wife
If he could see how much I care
Well, he's too busy dancing at the fair

Tell me friends did you see him go
Yes they said you don't wanna know
The truth would be much too hard to bear
He found a new love waiting at the fair
He's found a new love at the fair
He's found a new love at the fair
