Lyrics for 'Fifty Mile Hike' by 'Phil Ochs'
Some People Never Get Their Feet On The Ground,
They're Either Sitting In A Chair Or They're Laying Down
Their Bellies Are Hanging Down On Their Knees,
It's Almost A National Emergency.
Fifty Miles, Keep A-walking,
Twenty-five Miles And You're Almost There,
Fifty Miles No Use A-talkin',
Better Get In Step With The New Frontier.
Well, The President Put On His Walkin' Shoes
He Had A Country With 30 Millions Pounds To Lose
He Remembered A Promise He Made 'way Back When
He's Gonna Get The Country Movin' Again.
*chorus*
Then Everybody Started Getting Into The Act
Even Sallinger Left But He Soon Came Back
On His Return He Was Heard To Say
Fifty Miles A Day Keeps Republicans Away
*chorus*
Rockefeller's Happy With His Brand New Wife,
And Richard Nixon's Done Enough Running For Life
And Lyndon Johnson Is Too Busy A Man
And Joseph P. Kennedy Bought Out Tom Mccann.
*chorus*
So I Decided I Would Carry My Load
I Grabbed A Carton Of Cigarettes And I Hit The Road,
The Golf Clubs Were Heavy And The Gin Was Slow
If You Want To Get Healthy, That's The Way To Go.
*chorus*
While Everybody's Goin' Out And Havin' Fun
They Ought To Lose Some Weight In More Ways Than One
Fity Miles Of Thinking Is A Heavy Strain
But It's About The Only Cure, For An Overweight Brain.
*chorus*
