Subject: RE: Origin: Barges (Girl Scout song)
I also attened Camp Cahinnio in the 90's. my camp name was Spices.

I remember Barges going something like this:

Out of my window
looking in the night
I can see the barges flickering light
Silently flows the river to the sea and the barges to go silently

Chorus:
Barges I would to go with you
I would like to sail the ocean blue
Barges have you treasures in your hold
Do you fight with pirates brave and bold

Out of my window looking in the night
I can see the barges flickering light
Starboard shines green and Port is glowing red
I can see the barges far ahead

Chorus again

Out of my window looking in the night
I can see the bargs flickering light
People are going far far away
I would like to sail with them someday

Chorus again
