Lyrics for Album: Portrait: Music Of Dan Fogelberg From 1972-1997 [1997]
28358>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 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
