about

Going running with a pretty girl you have just met and want to impress.

lyrics

Took her out just to see
If I liked her and if she liked me
She was fine, she was toned
Curves in the right places, loved running races

I said I was fast, said I was strong
She told me she was a runner and I should tag along
She was fit, she was fast
And I’m not sure if I can handle coming in last

So next day I turned up,
Sky a grey ooze, I was wearing my polish running shoes
Trackers on
Not running yet, my heart’s a pounding hard, my back’s a full of sweat
She kissed… me soft
Just do the best you can, meaning I’m going to win and you know I am

Running down… that track
Feel my chest heave, watch her arse in front of me.
Feeling rough, can’t keep this up
She shoots me a smile, we haven’t even done half a mile.

2k in and it’s getting tough
I know I’m gonna lose, curse those polish running shoes
She’s so fit, I might just drop
Gotta hold it together, I just can’t stop
Up the hill, see the end
Gotta see this through, feel like I’m about to spew

When it’s done, I feel sore
She puts her arms round me says lets run some more.

Chris Speck Hull, UK

English folk and country singer and writer.

All the music here is original apart from 'The Game of All Fours' which was adapted from a traditional English folk song.

I like chips, mushy peas, warm beer, a red headed girl and my kids. Not in that order of course and some I like more than others. ... more
