Goin' Up To Saratoga

Goin’ Up to Saratoga Jim Gaudet

I’m goin’ up to Saratoga, watch them ponies run
I’m goin’ up to Saratoga, watch them ponies run
I’m gonna win the daily double go to Ciro’s and have me some fun

She stole my heart in Oklahoma, ran off to Omaha
She stole my heart in Oklahoma, ran off to Omaha
I think she stole more hearts than an old freight train can haul

You know I never saw it comin’ when you broke me the news
You know I never saw it comin’ you broke me the news
You made me feel like I was nothin’ but I’ll be something
You’ll be sorry to lose

So hard to believe that I went and let you into my life
It’s so hard to believe I went and let you into my life
I had every intention of making you my future ex-wife

I thought this time baby you were really gonna’ be the one
I thought this time baby you were really gonna’ be the one
I know you’re somebody’s daughter but to me you’re a son of a gun

You were born in a tropical storm that’s how they got your name
You were born in a tropical storm that’s how they got your name
When you quit me, it hit me like a hurricane

So I’m goin’ up to Saratoga, watch them ponies run
Goin’ up to Saratoga, watch them ponies run
I’m gonna’ call my brother Johnny, get on downtown and me some fun
