You're at the start I get a kick in the arse Then go in behind me and he grab's a pen Look at the form this one is sure to win Oh come on this ones sure to win
They're under orders I get my money in They're off so I pull out a fag It's five to one my life has just begun Oh come on this ones sure to win
Go on my son my life is win or lose Go on my son I've got a right to choose I wanna win I don't wanna lose
He's at the back I light another fag They're in the straight I'm getting in a state He's moving up I give out a cheer They tell me to shut up two left to run
He's right at the front looks like I'm nearly home He comes alive boy he's speeding up He's drawing away I'm shouting out hooray I'm going out tonight
Go on my son my life is win or lose Go on my son I've got a right to choose I wanna win I don't wanna lose
