Lyrics for Song: Race Is On
Lyrics for Album: Songs of Music City U.S.A. [Capitol] [1965]
(Don Rollins)
Ferlin Husky & Orlo & Marvis Thompson
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.
You might say that I was taking it hard
Oh, she 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 holding back they're tryin' not to fall
My heart's out of the running
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 suspecting
What the final result would be
How I lived in fear of waking up each morning
And findin' that you're gone from me.
There's ache and pain in my heart for today
Was the one that I hated to face
Somebody new came up to win her
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 holding back they're tryin' not to fall
My heart's out of the running
True love scratched for another's sake
The race is on and it looks like heartaches
And the winner loses all...
