Ride the 150

(Tune: Dylan's "Serve Somebody")

 

It might be a Huffy that you bought at K-Mart

It might be a Litespeed with top-of-the-line parts

It might be Bianchi, Trek or Cannondale

Might be an old Schwinn Varsity which you bought at a garage sale

 

But you're gonna have to ride the 150, yes you are

You're gonna have to ride the 150

Well you might barely make it, and you might set the pace

But you're gonna have to ride the 150

 

You might want to drop out after 45 miles

You might roll in first and find the people all smiles

Seat might be killing you, never felt that bad

You might ride the century, gave it all you had

 

But you're gonna have to ride the 150, yes you are

You're gonna have to ride the 150

Well you might barely make it, and you might set the pace

But you're gonna have to ride the 150

 

Might like to ride tandem, might like to ride road

Might like to ride mountain, or hybrid for your load

Might like a recumbant, might ride BMX

Might like a high-wheeler, I hope you had no wrecks

 

But you're gonna have to ride the 150, yes you are

You're gonna have to ride the 150

Well you might barely make it, and you might set the pace

But you're gonna have to ride the 150
