Del McCoury " Let An Old Racehorse Run" Live at the Grand Ole Opry( Original) 

What a song, sure enough.

Del is and still is and forever will be an American Icon. He holds things in our hearts that cannot be undone.

I absolutely love this song! The lyrics are pure genius! Let this old racehorse run:)

Such a beautiful song... A freedom that flows way down his soul... Let them retire like they deserve.

Don't get much better than this .listen to em for years. Blue grass kid

Last night I was playing pool with an old guy. He was 79 and a former pro, but he has had 2 strokes and though still a good amateur just place at my level now. After playing he started telling me his story, from starting at 15 and turning pro at 23 to his adventures as a pro. I listened to his story and though some of it was boring would have listened all night if I had to. I knew he was just an old racehorse who wanted to "feel the wind in his mane."

del pitch perfect
