Tonight they held the Belmont Stakes
And California Chrome
Was thought to be the one to bring
A triple trophy home.
He'd won the Derby, Preakness, too
And he was in contention
To win the Triple Crown at last -
That sure was the intention.
Alas, the horse did not succeed;
The pressure must have tripped him,
For he slowed down despite the fact
The jockey clearly whipped him.
So now it's thirty-seven years
Without a Triple Crown
And those whose hopes were highest
Must be feeling pretty down.
