Lyrics
Goin' down to the county fair
Going to the county fair
Even though I met you there
Meeting someone at the fair doesn't imply love
Doesn't mean I love you
Clarifying that meeting doesn't equate to love
Took a ride on the carousel
Taking a ride on the carousel
Got on the Gravitron
Riding the Gravitron until feeling unwell
'Til I didn't feel well
Experiencing discomfort on the Gravitron ride
I know it never made you sick
Acknowledging that the ride didn't make the other person sick
Lots of things never made you sick
Listing things that don't make the other person sick
Like riding in the back of the bus
Referencing riding in the back of the bus
Eating food that truckers bought
Mentioning eating trucker-bought food
We were just sixteen, born in 1993
Describing being sixteen, born in 1993
Fannie Mae cleaned out your dad's IRA
Fannie Mae affecting the father's IRA, hindering college plans
So you couldn't go to college
Resulting in not going to college
You just stuck around town
Staying in town despite the setback
'Til one day you find yourself
Finding contentment in the present moment
It's good enough for now
Accepting the current situation as satisfactory
Got a part time job at the flower shop
Working part-time at a flower shop
Trimming the trees and driving a truck
Engaged in tree trimming and truck driving
You work with a high school kid who sells you pot
Working with a high school colleague who sells drugs
la-da-di-da, la-da-di-da
Singing a nonsensical refrain (la-da-di-da)
Tears went down your face
Tears shed while discarding trophies
When you threw your trophies away
Expressing a emotional moment of letting go
Fannie Mae cleaned out your dad's IRA
Reiteration of Fannie Mae affecting the dad's IRA
Hooray!
Celebrating the impact (sarcastic or genuine)
Goin' down to the county fair
Repeating the intention of going to the county fair
Even though I met you there
Reiteration that meeting at the fair doesn't imply love
Doesn't mean I love you
Reaffirming that meeting doesn't equate to love
I guess I never loved you
Expressing doubt about ever having loved the person
I guess I never loved you
Repeating the doubt about past love
I guess I never loved you
Repeating the uncertainty about past love
