Derby Racers is the tenth song of season six of My Little Pony Friendship is Magic, featured in the fourteenth episode The Cart Before the Ponies. It is sung during the Applewood Derby as Rainbow Dash, Rarity, and Applejack steal the thunder from Scootaloo, Sweetie Belle and Apple Bloom, respectively. The song is also heard instrumentally twice in the same episode during a montage of the Cutie Mark Crusaders and their sisters making their carts and at the end during the do-over of the Derby.
The song's instrumental backing is briefly re-used in the season eight episode Yakity-Sax.

- Go, go, go!
- [Applejack]
- Check me out, racin' the Derby
- Check out my old-fashioned cart
- [Rarity]
- Check me out, racing the Derby
- In my original work of art
- [Rainbow Dash]
- Check me out, faster than ever
- There's nopony can catch me now
- [Cutie Mark Crusaders]
- Let me out, I'd do it over
- If I only knew how!

- Go, go, go!
- [Rarity]
- My cart's the most original
- Designed with imagination
- [Applejack]
- My cart's the most traditional
- Just plain, no complications
- [Rainbow Dash]
- Look at me, I am the ace
- Might as well give up the chase
- [Cutie Mark Crusaders]
- 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!
- [Ponies]

- If I want that ribbon
- [Rainbow Dash]
- Gotta push the limit further
- Blow away the competition
- [Applejack]
- Gotta coast on through
- Just relax, we're gonna cruise it
- [Apple Bloom]
- Guess I don't really care
- Since we're clearly gonna lose it
- [Rarity]
- See, everypony's watching
- Presentation is a glory
- [Rainbow Dash]
- Just passed you, even faster
- Speed is king, end of story
- [Rarity]
- Bigger, bolder down the track
- [Applejack]
- Love the view from the back of the pack
- [Rainbow Dash]
- Won't stop, we're on the attack
- [Cutie Mark Crusaders]
- Too late to take it all back!
