The Katy Trail inspires lots of people in lots of different ways. I recently received this song, which was written by Dennis Carroll.
Katy Trail Song
To the tune of “The Caissons Go Rolling Along”
Over hill, over dale as we hit the Katy Trail,
Those bicycles keep rolling along.
In and out, hear us shout, “Katy Trail’s what we’re about.”
Those bicycles keep rolling along.
Refrain:
We have filled our sacks with fruit and healthy snacks,
To make sure our legs keep pedalin’ strong.
Our strength will not fail as we ride the Katy Trail,
Those bicycles keep rolling along.
Smell that fresh country air; it is sometimes hard to bear.
Those bicycles keep rolling along.
Rain or shine, here’s our line: Katy Trail is mighty fine.
Those bicycles keep rolling along.
Refrain:
We have filled our sacks with fruit and healthy snacks,
To make sure our legs keep pedalin’ strong.
Our strength will not fail as we ride the Katy Trail,
Those bicycles keep rolling along.
