Thread Name: Summer Camp Songs
Subject: Summer Camp Songs
While preparing for a 50 mile hike on the Appalachian Trail, my dad (and scout master) found a book of British Boy Scout camp songs. This one got us through some really grueling climbs through the Kittatinny Mountains in northern New Jersey, sung to the tune of "Rally 'Round the Flag". Anybody got any others to add?

Mary had a little lamb and then she had some more, Shouting out the battle cry of freedom.

The teacher said you've had enough, you'd better hold your jaw, Shouting out the battle cry of freedom.

CHORUS: Hurrah for Mary, Hurrah for the lamb, Hurrah for the little girl who didn't care a little bit. And everywhere that Mary went, the lamb was sure to go, Shouting out the battle cry of freedom

'Twas the Schooner Hesperus that sailed the stormy sea, Mary took her lamb along to keep her company

She sat it on the binnacle, the fishes danced with glee, Shouting out the battle cry of freedom

CHORUS

Old Mother Hubbard went to the cupboard to satisfy her needs, She opened the lock and Oh, what a shock, the dog began to sneeze

For waltzing around the cupboard was a gorganzola cheese, Shouting out the battle cry of freedom.

CHORUS
