Born in the valley 
And raised in the trees 
Of western kentucky 
On wobbly knees 
With mama beside you 
To help you along 
Youll soon be a 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 its run for the roses 
As fast as you can 
Your fate is delivered 
Your moments at hand 
Its the chance of a lifetime 
In a lifetime of chance 
And its high time you joined 
In the dance 
Its high time you joined 
In the dance -- 
 
From sire to sire 
Its born in the blood 
The fire of a mare 
And the strength of a stud 
Its breeding and its training 
And its something unknown 
That drives you and carries 
You home. 
 
And its run for the roses 
As fast as you can 
Your fate is delivered 
Your moments at hand 
Its the chance of a lifetime 
In a lifetime of chance 
And its high time you joined 
In the dance 
Its high time you joined 
In the dance --
