Narborough Fair

Words and music of a variant of Narborough Fair appear in Man Of Convictions.

HIM

Don't I know you from Narborough Fair?

Hippies, yippies, and crab apple wine.

Remember me, I had orange hair?

Were you once a true lover of mine?

 

HER

Didn't you have an old granddad shirt;

Mellow yellow, and crab apple wine.

Without no collar, but plenty of dirt -

Was I once a true lover of thine?

 

HIM

Didn't you burn some incense and candles;

Flower power, and crab apple wine.

To sweeten the air when I took off my sandals -

Were you once a true lover of mine?

 

HER

Didn't I wake with you in your squat;

Magic mushrooms and crab apple wine.

Not able to recall if we'd done it or not -

Were you once a true lover of mine?

 

BOTH

This Narborough Fair of which we both sing;

Cannabis, acid, and home-brewed beer.

To tell the truth, I don't remember a thing -

In fact, I'm not even sure I was there!
