A Jolly Fair Song. (Sung by the Ithaca School at the Gratiot County Fair of 1878. Tune, "Wait for the Wagon." Pat's Pick, page 34.) A song! hurrah I my jolly friends, "" Let's make our country ring; True hearts will echo everywhere The merry lay we sing. Let men and women, boys and girls, And peddlers with us, too, Lift high their tuneful voices, A merry, happy crew. Chorus— Hurrah for our county! three cheers for our county, Hurrah for starving Gratiot, the county of the State. We've laid aside our toils and cares, And come down here today And see the fair of county fairs. And have a holiday.
