Oh yea  Oh yea  Oh no, no  Your mother told me that you  Don't live at home no more  Your mother told me that she don't like  The way I call you on the telephone  The old lady cursed the day that I was born  You never answer when I come by your door  Yet, leave me messages I cannot ignore  For a light dance, we took some heave steps my dear  You wear my trench coat in the rain and disappear  Does the forecast say?  Don't take me to the racetrack  Cause I don't want to place or show-ow  Don't take me to the racetrack  I'm not the jockey you think you know-ow  So, don't take me to the racetrack (to the racetrack)  You left a note for me to wait in the park  Two weeks have passed the leaves turn gray and dark  I'm confused at all the things you've said  There's no wall big enough for me to crash my head  You're too romantic and so foolish she equipped  Every love story will have it's own script  Something strange at work with one's integrity  The way we bleed our hearts and hang on hopelessly  And the forecast says?  Don't take me to the racetrack  Cause I don't want to place or show-ow  Don't take me to the racetrack  I'm not the jockey you think you know-ow  So, don't take me to the racetrack, oh yeah  Don't take me to the racetrack, (racetrack, racetrack)  Oh  Don't you take me to the racetrack, (racetrack, racetrack)  Here we go  Don't take me to the racetrack  I'm not the jockey you think you know  Don't take me to the racetrack  I know there's trouble down below  Don't take me to the racetrack  Mmm  To the racetrack  Don't take me to the race  Don't take me to the racetrack  Oh yea.
