Select language to translate this lyric
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 heavy 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
Don't take me to the racetrack
I'm not the jockey you think you know
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
ââ¬Â½You're too romantic and so foolishââ¬Â, she quipped
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
Don't take me to the racetrack
I'm not the jockey you think you know
So don't take me to the racetrack
Don't take me to the racetrack
Don't you take me to the 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
So don't take me to the racetrack
To the racetrack
Don't take me to the race
Don't take me to the racetrack
