Lyrics
'Racing to Death' If I don't win today I won't be here again I've seen it happen to my friends When their running days are done Will it be over for me soon? Can I come home with you? I'm a greyhound on the outside With a big heart on the inside I've run so many times Just a number on the lines Just another winning streak Just a gamble, at my peak But soon I will be lame I'll be out of this sad game I'm a dog like any other When my glory days are over And I'm racing to death For the price of a bet My life is at stake For the money you make So spare me a thought On that ticket you bought It's signing my life away I'm just a winner for a day So here I am I'm lost I've seen the gun, I heard the shot I saw my friend old Billy Jack I saw them drag him on his back I don't know who is gonna save me Please don't let them take me I'm a greyhound on the outside With a big heart on the inside And I'm racing to death For the price of a bet My life is at stake For the money you make So spare me a thought On that ticket you bought It's signing my life away I'm just a winner for a day © Maria Daines/Paul Killington All Rights Reserved (mcps) ASCAP 5.08.07
