"Rockin' In The Free World"

(apologies to Neil Young)

I'm seeing colors in the heat
Red, white and blue
Scouts shufflin' their feet
Scouts sweatin in their shoes
But there's a campground sign
on the trail ahead
There's a lot of Scouts marching
like the living dead
Don't feel like stoppin,
but I owe it to them
I gotta sit down
any way I can.

Keep on rockin' in the free world,
Keep on rockin' in the free world
Keep on rockin' in the free world,
Keep on rockin' in the free world.


We got a thousand stars tonight
For the camping man
We got a kinder, gentler,
leadership hand
We got our back packs
and a patrol plan
Got sleeping bags
for the hard rock pan
Got a Scoutmaster who says to keep hope alive
Got daylight to burn ,
got Scouts to drive.

Keep on rockin' in the free world,
Keep on rockin' in the free world
Keep on rockin' in the free world,
Keep on rockin' in the free world.
