The Race Lyrics

Kris Kristofferson The Race

The race is harder than arithmatic
some will say it can't be won
so it gets harder when your shoes are snake (Not sure of this lyric)
but I had set my mind to run.

but it was harder than I bargined for
broken dreams at evey turn
I had hard enough to almost make it through
and a lesson yet to learn.

I slipped at fell before the finish line
just when it seemed I couldn't loose
I can fall anytime you want me too
you are the shit beneath my shoe.
