Lyrics At Least We Got to the Race - Ben Sidran

At Least We Got to the Race

At least we got to the race
At least we got to the place where you show your face
We didn’t win we didn’t show we didn’t place
But at least we got to the race
At least we got to the ball
We maybe stumbled but we didn’t take a fall
No glass slippers, no shoes at all
But at least we got to the ball
Nobody counted, counted us in
Nobody thought that we’d ever win
They were right, right after all
But while they were counting, we had a ball
At least we made the parade
And we were there when the payback was finally paid
Warm in the sun, cool in the shade
At least we made the parade
Saw lots of others, sisters and brothers
Lay down their load by the side of the road
But what did we care we just stayed laissez fair
You can’t get enough of affirmative stuff
At least we found our way home
Didn’t hurt nobody, didn’t do nobody wrong
Couldn’t find the short way so we took the long
To the stroll rock and roll to the race dig your face
To the fair to the zoo to the game me and you
At least we found our way home
