Amusement Park Blues Song Lyrics
Amusement Park Blues by Ryan Balthrop We were up to the top of that roller coaster, scared down to our toes. To the top of that Ferris wheel, nobody sees and almost nobody knows. I took that girl to the fair. She left with some other dude when the place closed. The night man tol’ me so. And I got the Amusement Park Blues - only got one ticket, ‘cause I don’t’ need two.
She got some cotton candy stuck all to her face, wouldn’t take no candy from me. Some guy walked up with a foot-long corn-dog and two glasses of sweet tea.
Took my tickets out my hand, she said, “Now I got another man, mister, won’t ya leave me be”.

[Chorus] I got Amusement Park Blues, Amusement Park Blues, I got nothin’ left to lose, I just wanna be amused. What’s a boy to do with these Amusement Park Blues?

Lord, I got Amusement Park Blues, I got nothin’ to lose - now I just wanna be amused.

[Bridge]

Well, she really, really, really, really hurt me deep down inside. I was just a little fella then, with a man-sized pride. I said, “What’s wrong, baby? Ain’t I tall enough to ride that ride?” She just shook her pretty head from side to side and I walked down the midway - hope she didn’t see me cry.

I went and rode the Grav-a-tron; damn near tossed my cookies. She was throwing softballs for teddy bears; and I thought I’d seen her lookin’. Thought I smelled somethin’ cookin’, but it was like I wasn’t even there.
And that little girl, she was unaware. She took my love and balled it up and just threw up in the air.

That’s why [chorus]

I was up to the top of that roller coaster, scared down to my toes. To the top of that Ferris wheel, where nobody sees and almost nobody knows. I took that girl to the Greater Gulf State Fair. She left with some other fella when the place closed.

I got Amusement Park Blues, only got one ticket ‘cause I don’t need two. I got Amusement Park Blues, I got nothin’ to lose - now I just wanna be amused. Lord, I got Amusement Park Blues, only got one ticket, ‘cause I don’t need two.
