Why Do I Run?

by Ed Cunningham

Why do I run?  Tain't no mystery --
   Wanna have a good medical history.
Doctor told me runnin' is great --
   Helps my blood cells circulate.

Great for the lungs, great for the ticker.
   Can't nothin' get ya in better shape quicker.
Feels so healthy, feels so sweet,
   Pumpin' my arms and flappin' my feet.

Moldin' my muscles, firmin' my form,
   Pantin' like a pack mule, sweating up a storm.
Keeps me youthful, keeps me loose,
   Tightens my tummy and shrinks my caboose.

Beats bein' sluggish, beats bein' lazy --
  So why do I run?  Maybe I'm crazy!
