Walter the Wheezy Wonder

(Verse 1) In the land of the Bluegrass, where legends are born, There lived a horse named Walter, oh so forlorn. He wheezed and he puffed, with each breath he took, But little did they know, he'd soon be in the history book. (Chorus) Walter the Wheezy Wonder, with lungs of lead, Racing 'round the track with a cloud over his head. He stumbled and he stuttered, but he never gave in, Oh, Walter the Wheezy Wonder, destined to win. (Verse 2) The day of the Derby, the crowd gathered 'round, As Walter took his place, with a wheeze-ridden sound. The favorites were fast, sleek and strong, But Walter had a secret, he'd been hiding all along. (Chorus) Walter the Wheezy Wonder, with lungs of lead, Racing 'round the track with a cloud over his head. He stumbled and he stuttered, but he never gave in, Oh, Walter the Wheezy Wonder, destined to win. (Verse 3) As the race began, the thundering hooves, Sent vibrations through the air, making quite the groove. But up ahead, a clown's big mistake, Released balloons in the sky, causing chaos to partake. (Chorus) Walter the Wheezy Wonder, with lungs of lead, Racing 'round the track with a cloud over his head. He stumbled and he stuttered, but he never gave in, Oh, Walter the Wheezy Wonder, destine He stumbled and he stuttered, but he never gave in, Oh, Walter the Wheezy Wonder, destined to win. (Bridge) Then came the moment, that turned the tide, A burst of confetti, oh what a wild ride. The other horses halted, caught in the fray, But Walter kept on going, in his own silly way. (Verse 4) And just as he approached, the finish line in sight, A thunderous rumble, filled the air with fright. The faster horses scattered, as a hive came crashing down, Angry bees in pursuit, with a buzzing sound. (Chorus) Walter the Wheezy Wonder, with lungs of lead, Racing 'round the track with a cloud over his head. He stumbled and he stuttered, but he never gave in, Oh, Walter the Wheezy Wonder, destined to win. (Verse 5) Amidst the buzz, Walter plods on, Ahead of the Buzzed Bunch, his chance now drawn. But with each labored breath, he feels the strain, His lungs of lead, fighting against the pain. (Verse 6) Then from the crowd, a cheer so loud, A group of fans, for Walter they're proud. Their encouragement lifts him up, oh so high, With newfound strength, he reaches for the sky. (Chorus) Walter the Wheezy Wonder, with lungs of lead, Racing 'round the track with a cloud over his head. He stumbled and he stuttered, but he never gave in, O Amidst the buzz, Walter plods on, Ahead of the Buzzed Bunch, his chance now drawn. But with each labored breath, he feels the strain, His lungs of lead, fighting against the pain. (Verse 6) Then from the crowd, a cheer so loud, A group of fans, for Walter they're proud. Their encouragement lifts him up, oh so high, With newfound strength, he reaches for the sky. (Chorus) Walter the Wheezy Wonder, with lungs of lead, Racing 'round the track with a cloud over his head. He stumbled and he stuttered, but he never gave in, Oh, Walter the Wheezy Wonder, destined to win. [fiddle solo] (Outro) And as he crosses the line, to victory's delight, A tale of triumph, in this wacky horse flight. For even in his wheezing, he showed his might, Oh, Walter the Wheezy Wonder, a champion inside!
