There's something in the air that let's me know it's almost there and then I see it in the paper it's on Saturday right next to the chirporactic ad that says "we'll fix your back ache" in the boldest print that could be displayed
On Saturday I jump into my Chrysler 1982 and make my way down route 13 it's bales of hay and minivans and pumpkins with their fake suntans and then I see it...it's hard to beleive
it's hard to hold back the tears I've been waiting all year and now I'm finally here at the
Ch: corn maze...the best one I know open from labor day until we get snow the corn maze the best part of the fall and once they build it, it's come one come all.
Much more than even Christmas cheer I love this corny atmosphere I can feel it, the fields are alive with the joy as it becomes so clear just why we're all together here It's a special bond that's hard to describe
There's a kid with cotton candy and his directionally challenged granny yelling "can someone help me get out of this place?" I say "straight until you see the bear, a right, a left and you're almost there" I lied...but oh well what do you expect in the.....

A song after my own heart, I love the a-maze-ing grace of these puzzles of corn stalking you. I am always expecting to find someone's bones from years ago stuck in one of the twist and turns. I once startled a crow, out of a section that had lots of corn husks, and it scared the cornhole right off my son...lol I see you in the tunnels, if'n i don't get lost. great song....fun stuff that's what we need more of, and less booty talk..lmao~~~MFB III

HiDee Brother C!
You've taken us CityKids on a really FUN ride here, Amigo! I've never seen one firsthand..(& they didn't HAVE these things when I was a kid, back in the Dark Ages or YEAH, I'd have LOVED to try one!)
An enjoyable Travelogue ya got here!
Think your Chorus could be beefed-up a Tad:
"CORN MAZE..Best One I Know OPENS Labor Day..UNTIL..there's Snow/ CORN MAZE..Best Part of FALL..& Once They BUILD IT..It's a Place Where Y'ALL..Can GO.../ TO..The CORN MAZE---
I'll mess with that PRE- for the fun of it...see if ya like it KOS if ya don't:
It's hard HoldING back the tears/ I Been Waiting..& Frustrating..ALL of this Year/ & Now I'm Finally..FINALLY Here..at the.../
"KUDOS" Overall on this Fun Visitation, Amigo! (I'd use Chorus One at the end, because the "Maze/Maize" gag DOESN'T translate WELL to the line Being-PERFORMED.) My guess is that Most in the Listening Audience WON'T "Get It".
KOS the Sugs...& Good Luck with this Very Interesting AND Enjoyable Lyric.
Best Wishes & a Big Guy-Hug, Stan

Hi Cheezo, This is cute I'm not able to find a melody here but that's not unusual for me. I really love this part. There's a kid with cotton candy and his directionally challenged granny (love this line!) yelling "can someone help me get out of this place?" I say "straight until you see the bear, a right, a left and you're almost there" I lied...but oh well what do you expect in the.....

Great write! Very funny and very clever. Too many favorite lines to write them all down. Nice.
