Merry-go-round

J. Duke

Horses in front of me,

Horses behind,

But mine is the best one,

He never looks down.

He rises and falls

As if there were waves,

But he never goes under,

Oh, music, oh, mine.

He is steady and strong,

And he knows I am here,

He says he is glad

That I picked him to ride.

But he hasn't a name.

I told him my own,

And he only went faster,

Oh, music, oh, mine.

Around and around,

And the people out there

Don't notice how happy

I am, I am.

The others are too,

But I am the most,

The most, the most,

Oh, music, oh, mine.
