Once there was a very, very speedy hare (speedy hare)
Once there was a very, very speedy hare (speedy hare)
He would brag from near and far that he was faster than a car
Oh yes, one time there was a very speedy hare (speedy hare)
The plucky tortoise said to hare, "Let's have a race" (have a race)
The plucky tortoise said to hare, "Let's have a race" (have a race)
"If you're so fast in running shoes, then there's no way that you can lose"
Oh, yes, the tortoise said to hare, "Let's have a race" (have a race)
Fast and slow, fast and slow
Who will win? Let's watch them go
Down the road, around the tree
Who will win? Just wait and see
All the animals came down to see them run (see them run)
All the animals came down to see them run (see them run)
With a bell, the race began, and fast away the quick hare ran
Oh yes, the animals came down to see them run (see them run)
The lagging tortoise very slowly crawled along
The lagging tortoise very slowly crawled along
Since the hare so quickly sped, he had by now run far ahead
Oh yes, the tortoise very slowly crawled along
Fast and slow, fast and slow
Who will win? Let's watch them go
Down the road, around the tree
Who will win? Just wait and see
The speedy hare felt very sure that he would win (he would win)
The speedy hare felt very sure that he would win (he would win)
Since he thought he couldn't lose, he laid right down to take a snooze
Oh yes, the hare felt very sure that he would win (he would win)
The little tortoise kept on inching down the road
The little tortoise kept on inching down the road
He passed by the sleeping hare who kept on snoring unaware
Oh yes, the tortoise kept on inching down the road
Fast and slow, fast and slow
Who will win? Let's watch them go
Down the road, around the tree
Who will win? Just wait and see
Determined tortoise nearly reached the finish line (finish line)
Determined tortoise nearly reached the finish line (finish line)
The sleepy hare woke up and ran as fast as speedy quick hares can
Oh yes, the tortoise nearly reached the finish line

Yes, it's true that slow and steady wins the race (wins the race)
Yes, it's true that slow and steady wins the race (wins the race)
Oh yes, the hare was very fast, but even so, he came in last
Oh yes, it's true that slow and steady wins the race (wins the race)
Fast and slow, fast and slow
Who will win? Let's watch them go
Down the road, around the tree
Who will win? Just wait and see
