THE BIG RACE
I SNOWSHOE RACED AT FT McPHERSON
AND I’M A FIT AND HEALTHY PERSON.
THEY TOOK THE LEAD
‘CAUSE THEY HAD THE SPEED.
IT WAS A FAST RACE
BUT I KEPT MY PACE.
I KNOW HOW TO LOPE
SO MAYBE I HAD HOPE.
I HAD SOMETHING TO PROVE
AND I CAN STILL MOVE.
IT WAS A 5 MILE RACE
AN’ I HAD TO GIVE CHASE.
THEY WERE ALL IN A HURRY
SO THEY MADE ME WORRY.
THEY WERE THE FASTEST RUNNERS EVER
SO I HAD TO BE CLEVER.
I USED ALL MY TRICKS
‘CAUSE I’M RUNNING AT 56.
I’M MADE OF SINEW AND MUSCLE
SO I KNOW HOW TO HUSTLE.
THE FASTEST SNOWSHOERS I HAD TO BEAT
SO MY VICTORY WAS SWEET.
I’M NOT A YOUNG BUCK
BUT I HAD LOTS OF LUCK.
I RAN THE RACE IN A FAST TIME
BUT I WAS FASTER IN MY PRIME.
