Blood on the Saddle - Johnnie's at the Fair (Outtake 2) 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 here
Why is Johnny so long at the fair

Well, that evening sun, yesterday did set
Johnny packed up and told me not to fret
Swore to bring me ribbons for my hair
While he sings his songs at the fair

Well, 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
He's too busy dancing at the fair

Well, 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's found a new love waiting at the fair
He's found a new love waiting at the fair
