Ice Run (this one works best if you read it out loud) It seemed like we'd been crashing Over frozen ruts forever There wasn't snow to run on, We drove a four-wheeler instead
Our backs and butts were aching From the bouncing and the smashing Can't wait to ditch this ride Run on snow, drive a sled
Well, first it snowed, then it rained Then it got real cold and hard The trail was slick and icy But we had to do a run
We've got snow, we're running sleds Just hook a tree, is what she said Piece of cake, no problem Hook 'em up - let's have some fun
The runners skipped and chattered The dogs were really rolling We slid and whipped through corners I felt adrenalin and dread
Somewhere out there on that trail There was a hill, steep but short I hit the drag to slow them down - My foot hit the snow instead
But I held on - you can’t let go We didn't even slow a bit The sled stayed up, the dogs went faster They always do know how to help!
My body dragged between the rails Shit, I gotta slow them down! I slammed the brake bar with my knees Swallowing a painful yelp
I did a chin-up on the handle Dragged myself back into place Cleared my head and brushed the snow off Then kept on mushing down the trail
We did a twenty mile run My knee was sore but not too bad We ran on home and stopped the teams My knee gave out and down I fell
That night my knee swelled twice its size And locked up for a week Turned blue on black (and even green) And kept me up at night in bed
No I didn't loose the team Or even slow them down But how the hell do you get that hurt If you never even crash the sled?
Now it's two years later And I use a wider drag I keep my feet where they belong But I can still feel that old knee
