I think I learned this at a San Francisco Folk Music Club campout. I believe it was written by a park ranger: anyone remember his name? Is there another verse? I've messed with the words.
The Grateful Dead's Concert
If you go out in the woods today You're in for a big surprise If you go out in the woods today You wouldn't believe your eyes. For every head that ever there was Is heading there this morning because Today's the day the Grateful Dead give their concert.
If you go out in the woods today You probably won't see deer. It's not a park, it's a parking lot With copious cans of beer. Still we'll do the best that we can To start a dead VW van Today's the day the Grateful Dead give their concert.
(CHORUS) Concert time for the Grateful Dead The Grateful Dead I said, they're gonna be cranking up today See the deadheads still in bed We need the campsites, it's a holiday. Try to roust them, go ahead, Try to collect from them, they'll say that they have no dough But at five o'clock you'll find them at Stanford Standing in a line To give their bread to the Grateful Dead.
