i wrote this song parody for two friends of mine charley kaptur and kevin kinzy when i was training strongman with them, it has never seen the light of day since i wrote it 1 1/2 yrs. ago i picked this forum to finally publish it because i think this is the best strongman forum around. it is roughly to the tune of mamas dont let your babies grow up to be cowboys [thanks for indulging me]
MAMAS DONT LET YOUR BABIES GROW UP
TO BE STRONGMEN
strongmen like rusty old squat racks, and big heavy dumbbells
old leather weight belts,and lifting suits that smell like old socks
dim lit gymnasiums,with white clouds of talcum
and a shitload of weights on a bar
if you interuppt him when he's working out, he'll just turn over your car
strongmen like thomas inch dumbbells, and apollon axles
deadlifts and squats,viking presses and pulling a plane
a hercules hold, the husafelt stone and workouts that last all night long
he'll go to bed feelin' beaten and weak,but tomorrow he'll be twice as strong
they're always flipping big tires out in the driveway
yoke races,fingal fingers, and farmers walks around the block
sets and repititions are their ammunitions
they dont know any other way
visions of kazmaier and jon pall sigmarrson help them get stronger each day
mamas dont let your babies grow up to be strongmen
they'll only workout and they like to play hard
and they'll leave their atlas stones out in the yard
mamas dont let your babies grow up to be strongmen
cause your house will smell like a bucket of sweat
and your grocery[food] bill will equal the national debt
