This is not Churchhill downs this is not Hollywood

Park

When the field is wide open

I'll pick the horse that's got the biggest heart

Let em run let em ride let em roll down the track

Let em win place and show

Let em one dollar exact

Six furlongs four phillys

Three mares three years and up

Who measures up

Well I wish you luck

Who measures up

Well I wish you luck

This is not Churchhill downs this is not Hollywood

Park

When the field is wide open

I'll pick the horse that's got the biggest heart

Well they rush the windows and play odds on fave

(But the)My starter in 2nd deuces down a bit of give

and take

Race is a puzzler when they open from the outside

It's a hit and run and they look back

You can't count on that

That's a fact

The old men from El Cerrito

Who talk about their picks

And they talk about all the wins of the great jock

leftgit Pincay

This is not Churchhill downs this is not Hollywood

Park

When the field is wide open

I'll pick the horse that's got the biggest heart

Every time i come back to the east bay i run into "big

L"

My old friend Big L he's not doing so well

Me and Big L grew up across the freeway from the

track

WE spent may days at the track

I see Big L come rollin up the street

On his little sister's pink ten speed

He said "Tim, Tim don't you remember me?"

"way back from 1973?"

Every time i se him he has to remind me

Like i would ever forget Big L

Then he's gone

Like a flash

Then he's gone

Like a flash

yeah like a flash

Ok this is rancid signing off for now
