about

I may have lost
But I still may win
We have Don singing on this one too!

lyrics

It's a Hell of a way
And your intentions
Uphill and downhill
Not to mention

The wind in your face
The rain on your back
Try to win the race 
On the beaten track 

Is there any other way
From here to there
Than that lonesome road
I don't care

How long it takes
Something's got to give
There's no wasting time 
As long as you live

It's out of my hands
All I meant
It's open season
Heaven sent

Even if I pay your way
Into the fair
You know it still might rain
While we're there

I guess you can't outrun the rain
For all your trying
I guess I'll say goodbye
For all the trying
It's such a little while
It's just another mile
That you can outrun the rain
For all your trying

Eyes on the horizon
Storm on your heels
Try to keep a step ahead
Spinning your wheels

Try to collect
On the dues you've paid
All you made in the shade 
For one sunny day

So here we all stand
Soaked to the bone
Follow your heart
All the way home

You might as well dance
In the falling rain
Go lightly on the line
Between joy and pain

And when that day comes
Down the road
You pay at the gate
So I'm told

Tell the collector
I'm racing the wind
I may have lost
But I still may win

I guess you can't outrun the rain
For all your trying
I guess I'll say goodbye
For all the trying
It's such a little while
