Album: By The Time I Get To Phoenix (1967)

Back In The Race

Well I'm fallin' just about as far as I'm gonna fall
Well I've never been this slow before that I recall
And I'm gettin' tired of people picking on me
And I ain't a goin' down from here wait and see
There's gonna be a new dawn and a new day
From this moment on things are gonna break my way
I'm gonna wear a new smile and a new face
And then I'm goin' out and get back in the race

Well the people been a walkin' on me way too long
And the way I gotta figure I've been doin' it wrong
So from now on I'm a gonna look out from me
I'm gonna do what I want to be what I want to be
There's gonna be a new dawn...
