Standard (EADGBE)

 Well it's a nickel for the fiddler, It's a nickel for his tune

 It's a nickel for the tambourine kind of afternoon

 And it's a high holiday on the 21st of June||

  -i

And it's country music in the park and everybody's ruined

Instrumental break

Well it's fountains full of dogs and kids and it's freaky apple pie

And it's the ones who came to play and the ones just passin' by

And it's coats of many colors and it almost makes me cry

Lord it's ice cream on a stick And it's somethin' you can buy.

Instrumental break

Well it's a fiddler from Kentucky who swears he's 83

And he's fiddled every contest from here to cripple creek

And it's old ones and it's yound ones and it's plain they half agreed

But it's country music in the park as far as they can see

Instrumental break

Repeat 1st verse
