Carnival Nights

And the music played. So glad we stayed. Lights flashing so bright, As day turns to night. On the roller coaster- wind in your hair, Games to win a plush bear. They let the Ferris wheel stop, Right when we were at the top. Such a great view. Falling in love with you. And the music played. So glad we stayed. The ghost train where all the ghouls hide. Do you dare to go inside? This carnival is so much fun. For boys and girls and everyone. Cotton Candy on a stick. Join a line for the next ride, quick. Target practice to shoot the duck. With these old rifles you need some luck. And the music played. So glad we stayed. Need a drink - there's pink lemonade. Dont forget the penny arcade. I love the carnival for sure. Dont want to leave - let's stay for more.

Oh yes Jay, I agree, I remember once when I was a lil girl, shortly after arriving at a carnival, my dad won a huge Panda bear. We lugged it around all day and by the time we were ready to leave, we were both sorry he had won it. Thanks so much Jay for your many kind comments.
