Tom Hinkle

Blues-influenced songster, churning out songs never-before heard about food, love, work, teaching Spanish, and more.

In an effort to get my music out into the world and to hone my writing practice, I'm starting a Song-A-Week project I'll attempt to release one brand new song per week for a year, starting today, Sunday, May 14th, 2006, and continuing through Sunday, May 13, 2007.

Traditionally I, like most people, have written about love and sex — attraction, frustration, satisfaction, the works. As evidenced by the first song in my new series (about a job interview for a lame job), I'm trying to break out of this mold a bit more with my new series of songs... that said, I remain ever myself, and surely there will be more songs about love and whatnot.

Story behind the song

There are a lot of runners in Cambridge.

Lyrics

All over cambridge, there's young women running
All over cambridge, there's young women running
And they huff and they puff and they bounce up and down and they do it all so they'll look good in jeans
And I know I shouldn't look but sometimes I look and those young running tushes look good to me

All over Concord, there's old people running
All over Concord, rich old folks run
And their muscles slack and their footfall flags
But they keep coming back 'cause they're running from bad genes
Yeah they keeping coming back 'cause they're running from that high cholesterol and heart disease

All over the country, people are running
All over the country, people run
