Run For The Roses

Born in the valley
 And raised in the trees
 Of western Kentucky
 On wobbly knees
 With mama beside you
 To help you along
 You'll soon be growing up strong
 All the long, lazy mornings
 In pastures of green
 The sun on your withers
 The wind in your mane
 Could never prepare you
 For what lies ahead
 The run for the roses so red
 And it's run for the roses
 As fast as you can
 You 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
 It's high time you joined
 In the dance
 From sire to sire
 It's born in the blood
 The fire of a mare
 And the strength of a stud
 It's breeding and it's training
 And it's something unknown
 That drives you
 And carries you home
 And it's 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
