You know he's moving fast
But he's still going slow
He's ahead in the race
And there's not far to go
And your load is so heavy
And your legs want to rest
It's all right
it's all right it's all right
<Interlude>
You think he's way up front
But he's so far behind
He's asleep in the grass
And he's run out of time
While your load was so heavy
You never wanted to stop
It's all right
it's all right it's all right
Your friend is heavy
But he was ready
And never stopped for a while
While you were sleeping
He went on keeping
The final line in his mile
It's all right
it's all right it's all right
<Interlude>
It's all right
it's all right it's all right
Your friend is heavy
But he was ready
And never stopped for a while
While you were sleeping
He went on keeping
The final line in his mile
It's all right
it's all right it's all right
It's all right
it's all right it's all right
It's all right
it's all right it's all right
It's all right
it's all right it's all right
It's all right
it's all right it's all right
