Skip, Hop, Jump and Run
The days of skip, hop, jump and run
Slipped away from me like a breeze
I skipped skippin', (It was for girls)
Who knew boxers did it? (Not me)
I'd hop rocks and jump the big ditch
Run around like I was deranged
With school, those girls and bad habits
My hoppin' and jumpin' had changed!
I can still run but not too far
I'm embarrassed to say how slow
It's so hard to get back in shape
'Til it happens, you just don't know!
