The Battle Of Kookamonga

歌詞

In nineteen and fifty-nine we took a little hike With our scout master down to Lake Oneeganite We took a little pizza and we took some saurkrauts And we marched along together till we heard the girl scouts We're the boys from Camp Kookamonga Our mothers sent us here for to study nature's ways We learned to make sparks by rubbing sticks together But if we catch the girls then we'll set the woods ablaze And I was mad because me mother sent me up here ha-ha-ha Well we crept up to the water and we see the girls a-swimming There must've been a hundred of them pretty young women They looked so fine even birds forgot to sing We lay down in the poison oak and didn't say a thing We're the boys from Camp Kookamonga Our mothers sent us here for to study nature's ways We learned to make sparks by rubbing sticks together But if we catch the girls then we'll set the woods ablaze Hey will one of you fellas scratch my back? Well our counselor said we could take them by surprise If we didn't say a word till we looked them in the eyes We kept real still and we had our eyes aglued We saw how they were dressed they were swimming in the Well now... We're the boys from Camp Kookamonga Our mothers sent us here for to study nature's ways We learned to make sparks by rubbing sticks together But if we catch the girls then we'll set the woods ablaze Well they ran through the briars and they ran through the brambles They ran through the bushes where a rabbit couldn't go They ran so fast even we couldn't catch them And we can even hike all the way to Buffalo Hey fellas wait for me Well we ran right after them till everyone was pooped So we rested for a moment and our forces we regrouped Then we saw the girls behind some evergreens Captured by a company of United States Marines We're the boys from Camp Kookamonga Our mothers sent us here for to study nature's ways We learned to make sparks by rubbing sticks together But if we catch the girls then we'll set the woods ablaze Aww those big guys get everything Well they ran through the briars an they ran through the brambles They ran through the bushes where a rabbit couldn't go They ran so fast even we couldn't catch them And we can even hike all the way to Buffalo We're the boys from Camp Kookamonga Our mothers sent us here for to study nature's ways We learned to make sparks by rubbing sticks together But if we catch the girls then we'll set the woods ablaze A-rootie-toot-toot a-rootie-toot-toot Ah we are the boys from the boy scout troop We don't smoke and we don't chew And we don't go with the girls that do
