That day, for no particular reason, I decided to go for a little run. So I ran to the end of the road and when I got there, I thought maybe I’d run to the end of town and when I got there, I thought maybe I’d just run across Greenbow County. And I figured, since I run this far, maybe I’d just run across the great state of Alabama, and that’s what I did. I ran clear across Alabama. For no particular reason I just kept on going. I ran clear to the ocean and when I got there, I figured, since I’d gone this far, I might as well turn around, just keep on going. When I got to another ocean, I figured, since I’d gone this far, I might as well just turn back, keep right on going.
