Oh, the night was clear, stars were shining

You were dressed in blue, you looked so lovely

Just a gentle flower of a smalltown girl

You took my hand, we danced to the music
F G C
With a single smile, you became my world

Their drifting tunes seemed to fill the air

When we fell in love at the Roseville Fair

We'd sit for hours in the front porch chair

A year went by from the time that I met you

And we danced all night to the fiddle and the banjo-o
F G C
Their drifting tunes seemed to fill the air

So long ago, I still remember
F G C
When we fell in love at the Roseville Fair
