... the Chicken Fat song??
It starts: "Touch down, every morning..."
I found the complete video, sung by Robert Preston, on YouTube...(this one is about 1/3 of it -- the original is over 6 minutes long) This was President Kennedy's idea, in 1961! Thanks, man!!!
sit ups, push ups, circles, march, march, march...

Touch down
Every morning
Ten times!
Not just
Now and then.
Give that chicken fat
Back to the chicken,
And don't be chicken again.
No, don't be chicken again.
Push up
Every morning
Ten times.
Push up
Starting low.
Once more on the rise.
Nuts to the flabby guys!
Go, you chicken fat, go away!
Go, you chicken fat, go!
Left! Left! Left! Left!
Left a good pound and a quarter.
Was it right, right that it should be left?
Yes, I left! Left! Left! Left!
Left a good pound and a quarter.
It was right (left), right (left) that it should be left!
Now, touch your toes with me. Ready!
Touch down (up)
Every morning (down)
Ten times!
(Three!) Not just (up)
(Four!) Now and then (up)
(Five!) Give that (up) chicken fat

(Seven!) Don't be (up) chicken (Eight!) again

Push ups next,
Nice and steady.
Not too fast.
Ready!
Push up (down)
Every morning (up)
Ten times!
Push up,
