He runs with the wind But the wind always falls behind He runs just for fun In the air and the warm sunshine He's a Palomino colt and his life is brand new Runs through the meadow in the morning dew He runs with the wind But the wind always falls behind He's fast and he's sleek And he comes from a noble line His father was a champion and his mother was too Bred in Kentucky where the grass is so blue He runs with the wind but the wind always falls behind He runs with the wind but the wind always falls behind He's a Palomino colt and his life is brand new Runs through the meadow in the morning dew He runs with the wind But the wind always falls behind Someday he'll be first As he runs past the finish line Speed and beauty are what he's made of He's gonna spend his life doing what he loves He runs with the wind but the wind always falls behind He runs with the wind but the wind always falls behind He runs with the wind but the wind always falls behind
