Song Description
Mary Jo has often found herself doing what many good-hearted people do: caring so much about their work or their friends or loved ones that their own well-being suffers. I wrote this song for Mary Jo to reinforce her commitment to taking care of herself so she can be at her best for her friends and her work.

Lyrics
VERSE 1) Does anyone have baggage I can carry
Is there another hat that I can wear
Just load up both my shoulders till I'm buried
'Cause if you need a fixer I'll be there
CHORUS) Too many years I've been ravaged by the fear
That I'm letting people down unless I run until I drop
Love your nerighbor as yourself is the key to better health
All this juggling all this running I've just got to make it stop
VERSE 2) I'll get to that next phone call in a minute
I've got to get a workout in real quick
At lunch I grabbed a salad what was in it
I ate the thing so fast it made me sick
CHORUS) Too many years I've been ravaged by the fear
That I'm letting people down unless I run until I drop
Love your neighbor as yourself is the key to better health
All this juggling all this running I've just got to make it stop
VERSE 3) Another verbal beating from a client
It eats away the passion I once knew
So is it any wonder I'm defiant
Considering the hell they've put me through
CHORUS) Too many years I've been ravaged by the fear
That I'm letting people down unless I run until I drop
Love your neighbor as yourself is the key to better health
All this juggling all this running I've just got to make it stop
PIANO SOLO
REPEAT CHORUS
