(Apologies to Glenn Frey)
I’m running down the road feeling overshadowed
Got sixty runners on my mind
Most of them are faster
And those I’ll never master
But there are still a few behind
Can’t take it easy, can’t take it easy
Can’t let the sound of my own footsteps drive me crazy
I’m running round the corner I’m a long way down the order
But what a fine sight to see
A water stop my Lord which I can afford
And that’s because it’s absolutely free
Can’t take it easy, can’t take it easy
Can’t let the sound of my own footsteps drive me crazy
Come on baby legs don’t fail me
I wanna know if I can do it when I’m eighty
I may lose I may win
But I will never be here again
And that’s the day I might slow down and
Take it easy
Good parody.

Well, respect by imitation rather than parody maybe. I often think why invent a new arrangement when it’s already there, just needing the words changing 🙂

You make running sound enticing – that’s high praise from me!

Don’t do it Kerry, once you get the bug you’re doomed to run forever.

I don’t think I would ever get the bug, Roy, but I do enjoy walking!
