Lyrics

[00:00.28] Lana Del Rey - Off to the Races
[00:00.90]
[00:01.40]
[00:01.60] My old man is a bad man
[00:03.39] But I can't deny the way he holds my hand
[00:06.83] And he grabs me, he has me by my heart
[00:13.02] He doesn't mind I have a Las Vegas past
[00:16.02] He doesn't mind I have a L.A crass way about me
[00:20.49] He loves me with every beat of his cocaine heart
[00:23.21]
[00:24.88] Swimming pool
[00:25.96] Glimmering darling
[00:26.13] Wipe bikini off with my red nail polish
[00:29.88] Watch me in the swimming pool
[00:31.41] Bright blue ripples, you
[00:32.97] Sittin' sippin' on your black crystal, oh yeah
[00:35.29]
[00:36.69] Light of my life, fire of my loins
[00:39.72] Be a good baby, do what I want
[00:42.65] Light of my life, fire of my loins
[00:45.69] Gimme them gold coins
[00:47.29] Gimme them coins
[00:48.00]
[00:47.86] And I'm off to the races, cases of Bacardi chasers,
[00:51.64] Chasin' me all over town
[00:53.94] Cause he knows I'm wasted, facin'
[00:56.18] Time again on Rikers
[00:57.68] Island and I won't get out
[00:59.37]
[01:00.17] Because I'm crazy, baby
[01:03.40] I need you to come here and save me
[01:05.95] I'm your little scarlet, starlet
[01:08.16] Singing in the garden,
[01:09.66] Kiss me on my open mouth
[01:11.94] Ready for you
[01:13.19]
[01:15.98] My old man is, a tough man
[01:18.87] But he got a soul as sweet as blood red jam
[01:21.91] And he shows me, he knows me, every inch of my tar black soul
[01:27.94] He doesn't mind I have a flat, broke-down life
[01:31.04] In fact he says he thinks it's why he might like about me, admires me
[01:36.40] The way I roll like a rolling stone
[01:38.47]
[01:39.11] Likes to watch me in the glass room, bathroom
[01:41.45] Chateau Marmont
[01:42.65] Slippin' on my red dress, putting on my make up
[01:45.57] Glass room, perfume, cognac, lilac
[01:48.65] Fumes, says it feels like heaven to him
[01:51.32]
[01:51.89] Light of his life, fire of his loins
[01:54.65] Keep me forever, tell me you own me
[01:57.69] Light of your life, fire of your loins
[02:00.67] Tell me you own me, gimme them coins
[02:03.01]
[02:02.90] And I'm off to the races, cases of Bacardi chasers
[02:06.64] Chasin' me all over town
[02:09.05] Cause he knows I'm wasted, facin'
[02:11.18] Time again on Rikers
[02:12.70] Island and I won't get out
[02:14.28]
[02:15.20] Because I'm crazy, baby
[02:18.54] I need you to come here and save me
[02:21.81] I'm your little scarlet, starlet
[02:23.24] Singing in the garden,
[02:24.63] Kiss me on my open mouth
[02:26.33]
[02:26.87] Now I'm off to the races, laces
[02:29.11] Leather on my waist is
[02:30.59] Tight and I am falling down
[02:32.93] I can see your face is, shameless
[02:35.09] Cipriani's basement
[02:36.63] Love you, but I'm going down
[02:38.37]
[02:39.14] God I'm so crazy, baby
[02:42.52] I'm sorry that I'm misbehaving
[02:44.93] I'm your little harlot, starlet
[02:47.13] Queen of Coney Island
[02:48.67] Raising hell all over town
[02:50.91] Sorry 'bout it
[02:52.22]
[02:55.27] My old man is a thief, and
[02:57.73] I'm gonna stay and pray with him 'til the end
[03:03.53] But I trust in the decision of the Lord,
[03:07.29] To watch over us
[03:10.02] Take him when He may, if He may
[03:13.05] I'm not afraid to say
[03:15.22] That I'd die without him
[03:17.63] Who else is gonna put up with me this way
[03:21.64] I need you, I breathe you, I'll never leave you
[03:25.08] They would rue the day, I was alone without you
[03:29.35]
[03:30.76] You're lying with your gold chain on
[03:32.83] Cigar hanging from your lips
[03:34.28] I said "Hon' you never looked so beautiful
[03:38.93] As you do now my man"
[03:41.05]
[03:41.77] And we're off to the races, places
[03:44.21] Ready, set, the gate is down
[03:45.75] And now we're going in
[03:48.26] To Las Vegas, pay us,
[03:50.17] Casino Oasis,
[03:51.71] Honey it is time to spin
[03:53.95] Boy you're so crazy, baby
[03:57.40] I love you forever
[03:59.15] Not maybe
[04:00.02] You are my one true love
[04:02.89] You are my one true love
[04:04.97]
[04:24.34] You are my one true love
