[Intro: calliope] [Verse 1] Lights on the midway, moon like a pie, Chet's got a rifle and a gleam in his eye, Tin ducks a-rollin', they're lined up in a row, He missed every one and they quacked "Hello!" [Chorus] Three shots for a dime (quack quack!), Step right up, take your time (ooh-wah), The wheel goes round and the lights go low, Hold my hand, honey, don't let go. [Verse 2] Bumper cars spark and the Count drives mean, Nurse hands out bandages, crisp and clean, Ghost train's a-rattle, and somebody waved, I waved right back 'cause I'm feeling brave. [Chorus] Three shots for a dime (quack quack!), Step right up, take your time (ooh-wah), The wheel goes round and the lights go low, Hold my hand, honey, don't let go. [Bridge: cheer] Two, four, six, eight, who's that at the gate? A man in a boater says don't be late. [Final chorus] Three shots for a dime (quack quack!), Step right up, take your time, Top of the wheel where the moonlight glows, Where'd my fella go? Nobody knows... [Outro: calliope winds down]
