#8 Wants To Win This Race
Well, Daddy, we are back in Daytona again.
That big trophy, we all want to win!
You won it, Daddy...
So, I want to win it, too.
I am my own man, Daddy...
But I still want to be like you!
I grew up in the shadow of greatness,
But many times I walked by your side!
And, Man, I thought my heart would burst with pride!!!
You told me I would never disappoint you.
So, everyday, I try to do what you would want me to do.
I miss you, Daddy...
But I know you are near!
Sometimes, I see you out of the corner of my eye,
But when I turn and look, you are not there.
But I still know you are around.
Especially, at Daytona, which, to me, is like "sacred ground"!
I want to win this race to make you proud!
And I know you will be there...
Watching from somewhere in the crowd.
Help guide my hands with steady grace...
Be the wind beneath my sails...
For #3, #8 wants to win this race!!!
