That drives you and carries you home
In a lifetime of chance
And it's high time you joined in the dance
It's breeding and it's training
Your fate is delivered
The sun on your withers
It's high time you joined in the dance
It's the chance of a lifetime
Your moment's at hand
With Mama beside you
All long lazy mornings
The wind in your mane
The run for the roses so red
And it's run for the roses
Your moment's at hand
You'll soon be a growing up strong
The fire of a mare
Your fate is delivered
In a lifetime of chance
Of Western Kentucky
And it's something unknown
And it's run for the roses
To help you along
And it's high time you joined in the dance
Could never prepare you
It's the chance of a lifetime
It's born in the blood
And the strength of a stud
On wobbly knees
From sire to sire
In pastures of green
As fast as you can
For what lied ahead
As fast as you can
