The Benefits of Exercise

All my life I've been extra large plus I'm known as a very large fellow I would easily pass as a school district bus If somebody painted me yellow "No secret to losing weight" I've been told "Just cut the fat from your diet" "Get up and about even if it's cold" Once again, I decided to try it But, jogging was something senseless to me And riding a bike seemed insane Joining a gym involved a large fee And lifting weights was a pain So for exercise I choose horseback riding It's fun and easier than it sounds It's a very effective form of dieting 'Cause my horse lost forty pounds
