Run for the Roses
Born in the valley, raised in the treesOf western Kengucky on wobbly knees
With mama beside you to help you along
You'll soon be a-growin' up strong
The long lazy mornings in pastures of grain
The sun on your withers, the wind in your mane
Could never prepare you for what lies ahead:
It's the run for the roses so red
And it's the run for the roses as fast as you can
Your fate is delivered, your moemnt's at hand
It's the chance of a lifetime in a lifetime of chance
And it's high time you joined in the dance
From sire to sire it's born in the blood
The fire of a mare, the strength of a stud
It's breeding and training and something unknown
That drives and carries you home
And it's the run for the roses as fast as you can
Your fate is delivered, your moment's at hand
It's the chance of a lifetime in a lifetime of chance
And it's high time you joined in the dance
And it's high time you joined in the dance
