Subject: RE: Tune Req: 'I Want a Man' traditional (?) camp song
Yes, at camp we sang this in the 1970's to the tune of Alexander's Ragtime Band:

I wanna man, I wanna man, I wanna mansion in the sky.
I wanna hell, I wanna hell, I wanna help some birdie fly.
And when the damn, damn, damn, damn, damage is done,
We'll have a-child, child, child, child, childish fun,
In our mansion in the sky.

We'll go to bed, we'll go to bed, we'll go to Betty's house tonight.
And we'll get hot, we'll get hot, we'll get hot dogs on the way.
And when the damn, damn, damn, damn, damage is done,
We'll have a-child, child, child, child, childish fun,
In our mansion in the sky.
