Lexington's park, with horses grand,
I tried to ride, hat in hand.

And rolled around without a care.
The locals laughed and helped me stand,

From horse park's charm to city's cheer,
Lexington's laughter's always near.

Lexington's bourbon, rich and sweet,
I took a sip, what a treat.
But then I spilled it on my lap,
And laughed so hard, gave a clap.
The locals smiled and gave me more,
In Lexington, joy's at the core.
