To get them well away;
They’re kicking and they’re plunging,
And the jocks are swearing loud,
And the noise is never ceasing
From the bookies in the crowd.
And it’s “Any price outsiders,” shout the bookies in the crowd.
They’re off! The favourite’s leading!
See each bookie’s anxious face!
The favourite makes the running,
Oh, what a fearful pace—
