Popcorn Girl  - by Casey

I signed on for the county fair
Had nothing to do, wasn't going anywhere
And while I worked I saw you every day
With a smile, I'm sure, you sent my way

/ G - C G / :

I try to wave to just say “hi”
But a thousand people always seemed to come by
They never gave you time to be free
So every day it was the same for me

/ G - C G / :

CHORUS:
You're the popcorn girl in the popcorn stand
I'm the cotton candy guy, got to spin it by hand
You're the butter cup queen making every sale
And I'm locked up in a candy land jail.

/ D - - - / G - C G / D - - - / G - C G /

You work the day, I work the night
The schedule overlap is never quite right
I arrive and the crowd's insane
And when you leave they are the same

/ G - C G / :

In my free time I make the rounds
Going here and there across the grounds
I look for you, but you disappear
I search high and low, far and near

/ G - C G / :

REPEAT CHORUS:

The county fair has run its course
I'm left behind, with some remorse
I never got to learn your name
Or what went wrong, was I to blame?

/ G - C G / :

But I'll come back again next year
I hope that you'll be working here
I'll get a job, be close to you
I'm gonna learn to pop a kernel or two

/ G - C G / :

REPEAT CHORUS:
