To the tune of "See that My Grave Is Kept Clean" I'm goin' away don't you want to go I'm goin' away don't you want to go I'm goin' away to the Getaway There on that West River shore There's one kind favor I'll ask of you There's one kind favor I'll ask of you There's one kind favor I will ask of you Use earplugs if you bunk with me. You can make your bed with a sleeping bag You can make your bed with a sleeping bag You can make your bed with a sleeping bag But bring a sheet should the nights be warm. The meals at West River are very bad The meals at West River are very bad The food at West River is very bad It don't matter, ain't why we're here. Angel bands singin' all night long Angel bands singin' all day long Angel bands singin' day and night long Singin' even at the break of dawn. The sun comes up on the Chesapeake Bay Sun comes up on the Chesapeake Bay The sun comes up on the Chesapeake Bay To the silver and gold of voices raised.
