Run For The Roses Lyrics - Dan Fogelberg

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 a-growin' up strong 

Oh, 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 

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 

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 high time 

You joined in the dance
