Dawn Of Victory
With the finish line in sight don't give up the fight
At the dawn of victory don't forsake what's right
With the contender at rest don't give up the quest
At the dawn of victory don't forsake what's best
With the labor pain so near don't give up the cheer
At the dawn of victory don't forsake what's dear
With the pessimist as sign don't give up the shine
At the dawn of victory don't forsake what's fine
With the baggy style at peak don't give up the sleek
At the dawn of victory don't forsake what's chic
With the surrogate in lieu don't give up the true
At the dawn of victory don't forsake what's due
With the table's cold as ice don't give up the dice
At the dawn of victory don't forsake what's nice
With the wealthier so blind don't give up the find
At the dawn of victory don't forsake what's kind
