Title:
I WILL SURVIVE... 3DAY VERSION

(from a Seattle husband and wife)
To the (ever popular) tune of I Will Survive

At first I was afraid

I was petrified

Kept thinking I could never walk

with blisters on my hide

but I spent so many days

doing training walks on streets

but now my feet

they're swelling from the wicked heat

and so they're back

from outer space

I just walked on

and they appeared

right there upon my toes and heels

I should have changed my stupid socks

I should have stopped to tape my feet

If I had known for just one second

they'd be back to bother me

[chorus]

Go on now walk

and clap your hands

Don't turn around now

Cause you're out saving lots of cans

weren't you the one that raised that money for the fund

you'd think we'd crumble

just thank God it's not a run

Oh yes now I

I will survive

As long as I know how to walk

I know I'll save some lives

I've got all my life to live

I've got all my love to give

And I'll survive

I will survive

hey hey!!!

It took all the strength

I had just to tie my shoes

I've just got to keep in mind

this is the path I choose

And I walk oh so many miles

Rais-ing awareness for the cause

we will prevail

we can someday tell the tale

of how we beat

all of the odds

we went out and fought that cancer

and got lots of folks involved

we asked our friends to donate cash

and trained until our legs were strong

now we're saving lots of lives

and we're singing a new song
