Long Shot

I'm a long shot baby
A long shot is what I am
I'm a long shot baby
A long shot is what I am

Well, my mane's gone gray but but legs ain't tired
And I can run much faster than anybody says I can

I'm a long shot baby
A long shot is what I been
I'm a long shot baby
Been shootin' since I don't know when
Don't put your money on another horse, son
I ain't gonna be one of those twenty-seven also rans

Seems to me there must be some mistake, I don't know where
You got it all wrong, but on the other hand I don't care
I wanna take my time before I get blue in the face
Cut the shit, we both know it, it's a long race

Well, I'm a shortstop baby, a shortstop is what I'll be
I'm a shortstop baby and a shortstop is what I'll be
I can shuffle-step side to side, legs down, open wide
Side-spitting, knocking down every ground ball I see

Seems to me you got a little trouble with the play by play
You got the wrong idea 'bout every other word I say
I wanna call time out and fiddle with my batting gloves
It ain't just good defense that everyone loves

I'm a long shot baby
A long shot is what I am
I'm a long shot baby
A long shot is what I am

Well, my mane's gone gray but but legs ain't tired
And I can run much faster than anybody says I can
I wanna take my time before I get blue in the face
Aw come on, we both know it, it's a long race
