On a Carousel

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
Riding along on a carousel
Trying to catch up to you
Riding along on a carousel
Will I catch up to you?
Horses chasing 'cause they're racing
So near, yet so far

[Chorus]
On a carousel
On a carousel

[Verse 2]
Nearer, nearer by changing horses
Still so far away
People fighting for their places
Just get in my way
Soon you'll leave and then I'll lose you
Still, we're going round

[Chorus]
On a carousel
On a carousel

[Bridge]
'Round and 'round and 'round and round and
'Round and 'round and 'round and 'round with you
Up, down, up, down, up, down, too

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
As she leaves, she drops the presents
That she won before
Pulling ducks out of the water
Got the highest score
Now's my chance and I must take it
A case of do-or-die

[Chorus]
On a carousel
On a carousel

[Bridge]
'Round and 'round and 'round and round and
'Round and 'round and 'round and 'round with you
Up, down, up, down, up, down, too

[Verse 4]
Riding along on a carousel
Trying to catch up to you
Riding along on a carousel
Will I catch up to you?
Now we take our ride together
No more chasing her

[Chorus/Outro]
On a carousel
On a carousel
On a carousel
On a carousel
On a carousel...
