Let the Record Go

Let the record show: you gave it all your might.
And let the record show: I gave it all of mine.
It didn’t turn out quite, quite like we’d hoped.
So lay your best lines and let the record go.
One more time now, you can’t stop this;
Let it roll on by.
Round and around and around we go.
Are we up or down? I don’t know.
Round and around and around we go.
The circle’s tight, it holds us close.
Round and around and around we go-
Up or down, oh, I don’t know.
Round and around and around we go.
The wheels are round to let us go.
Let the record show: you gave a real good fight.
And let the record show: so did I.
Four black eyes, some sticks and stones.
Chalk the numbers up And let the record go.
Round and around and around we go.
Are we up or down? I don’t know.
Round and around and around we go.
The circle’s tight, it holds us close.
Round and around and around we go-
Up or down, oh, I don’t know.
Round and around and around we go.
The wheels are round to let us go.
