It's not where you start, it's where you finish.
It's not how  you go, it's how  you land.
A hundred to one shot, they call him a  klutz 
Can out-run the favorite, all he needs is the guts.
Your final return will not diminish
And you can be the cream of the crop;
It's not where you start, it's where you finish,
And you're gonna finish on top.

If you start at the top, you're certain to drop, 
You've got to watch your timing; 
Better begin by climbing up, up, up the ladder. 
If you're going to last you can't make it fast,  man, 
Nobody starts a winner, give me a slow beginner,
Easy does it, conserve your fine endurance;
Easy does it, for that's your life insurance.
While you are young,take it rung after rung  after rung.

It's not where you start, it's where you finish.
It's not how  you go, it's how  you  land.
A  hundred to one shot, they call him a klutz 
Can out-run the favorite, all he needs is the guts.
Your final return will not diminish
And you can be the cream of the crop;
It's not where you start, it's where you finish,
And you're gonna finish on top.
