Song Name: Derby Racers
Subtitle: Demo 1
Original Name: MLP615 Derby Racers_piano demo R2_APPROVED
Episode: S06E14 "The Cart Before the Ponies"
Key: D major
---
Similar to the It's Gonna Work "piano demo", I've marked this as a demo due to the lack of audible piano in the track.
---
Differences with the final song:
- There are no lyrical differences - only portions that are sang differently (indicated with an asterisk). Most notably, "Giddyup" is sung rather than shouted, as is "Too late to take it all back".

Lyrics (adapted from MLP wiki):
Go, go, go!
Check me out, racin' the Derby
Check out my old-fashioned cart
Check me out, racing the Derby
In my original work of art
Check me out, faster than ever
There's nopony can catch me now
Let me out, I'd do it over
If I only knew how!
Giddyup, derby racers*
Giddyup, derby racers*
Giddyup, derby racers*
Go, go, go!
My cart's the most original
Designed with imagination
My cart's the most traditional
Just plain, no complications
Look at me, I am the ace
Might as well give up the chase
Wish we could stop this race
Start again and do it our way
Scootaloo: Having any fun yet?
Apple Bloom: Nope! Maybe if we could go a little faster!
Giddyup, derby racers*
Giddyup, derby racers*
Giddyup, derby racers*
Go, go, go!
Gotta get some attention
If I want that ribbon
Gotta push the limit further
Blow away the competition
Gotta coast on through
Just relax, we're gonna cruise it
Guess I don't really care
Since we're clearly gonna lose it
See, everypony's watching
Presentation is our glory
Just passed you, even faster
Speed is king, end of story
Bigger, bolder down the track*
Love the view from the back of the pack*
Won't stop, we're on the attack*
Too late to take it all back!*
Giddyup, derby racers*
Giddyup, derby racers*
Giddyup, derby racers*
Go, go—
Cutie Mark Crusaders: Look out!
