Artist/Band: Loretta Lynn
Lyrics for Song: Race Is On
Lyrics for Album: Blue Kentucky Girl [1965]



Well, I feel tears wellin' up cold and deep

Inside like my heart's sprung a big break

And a stab of loneliness sharp and painful

That I may never shake.



Now you might say that I was takin' it hard

That he wrote me off with a call

But don't you wager that I'll hide the sorrow

When I may break right down and bawl



Now the race is on

And here comes pride

Up the backstretch

Heartaches are going to the inside

My tears are holdin' back

They're tryin' not to fall

lMy heart's out of the runnin'

True love scratched for another's sake

The race is on and it looks like

Heartaches and the winner loses all.



--- Instrumental ---



One day I ventured in love never once suspectin'

What the final result would be

How I lived in fear of waking up each morning

And findin' that you're gone from me



'Cause there's ache and pain in my heart

For today was the one that I hated to face

Somebody new came up to win him

And I came out in second place.



Now the race is on

And here comes pride

Up the backstretch

Heartaches are going to the inside

My tears are holdin' back

They're tryin' not to fall

lMy heart's out of the runnin'

True love scratched for another's sake

The race is on and it looks like

Heartaches and the winner loses all...
