On a Carousel

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 On a carousel On a carousel Nearer, nearer by changing horses Still so far away People fighting for their places Just get in the way Soon you'll leave and then I'll lose you Still we're going 'round On a carousel On a carousel 'Round and 'round and 'round and 'round And 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round with you Up, down, up, down, up, down too 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 On a carousel On a carousel 'Round and 'round and 'round and 'round And 'round and 'round and 'round and 'round with you Up, down, up, down, up, down too 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 rides together No more chasing her On a carousel On a carousel On a carousel On a carousel
