Kevin L. Griffith - Lift My Feet

The gun goes off before daylight
Brave hardy souls, setting out for a fight
Seventy miles to go, no time to be weak
The trail monster will get me if I don't lift my feet
Nothin's gonna stop me that's what I say
Even if it takes me the whole damn day
Sixty miles to go, these hills are steep
And the trail monster will get me if I don't lift my feet
A rock was loose and my ankle twisted
Maybe I should have just desisted
Fifty miles to go, gotta get lots to eat
The trail monster will get me if I don't lift my feet
Down that slope, that I'd rather be skiing
This ain't so good for my own well-being
Forty miles to go, I can feel the heat
And the trail monster will get me if I don't lift my feet
Keep the legs moving and fight off the cramps
A more peaceful hobby would be collecting stamps
Thirty miles to go and my legs are beat
The trail monster will get me if I don't lift my feet
Everything hurts as daylight fades
This is starting to be a crusade
Twenty miles to go and don't fall in a heap
'Cause the trail monster will get me if I don't lift my feet
They say it's all downhill from this point on
But don't believe that, it's all a con
Ten miles to go and I need some sleep
The trail monster gets me if I don't lift my feet
Navigating at night down a rocky trail
I'm picking up speed it's like I've got a sail
The finish is here, this is so sweet
That trail monster never got me or my feet
That trail monster never got me or my feet
