Song lyrics
You say you're a racehorse mama, your jockey ain't never been found.
You say you're a racehorse mama, but your jockey ain't never been found.
But you've found the best little jockey, I'm the best rider in town.

Now you may be a good racehorse mama, but I don't think you so hot.
You may be a good racehorse, but I don't think you so hot.
‘Cause when it comes to ridin' what you know, baby I've done forgot.

To be a good racehorse, a good jockey 's what you really need.
To be a good racehorse mama, a good jockey 's what you really need.
‘Cause when you get on your home stretch, you don't know how to pick up your speed.

Now to be a good racehorse, you've got to try and hold your second spot.
To be a good racehorse mama, you've got try to hold your second spot.
As soon as you get on your home stretch, give your jockey every bit you got.

Now if you wanna be a good racehorse, let me do your trainin' from now on.
If you want be a real good racehorse, let me do your trainin' from now on.
And I will make you win races, mama that have never been won.
 
I'm a jockey by trade.  I've rode the best horses that run.
I'm a jockey by trade.  I've rode the best in horses that run.
And if you don't start jumpin', I will show you how the ridin 's done.
