The Senior Citizen Camping Song
Liner Notes
I made a list of subjects I wanted to cover during FAWM. This one covers camping. A little bit silly, but not all that untrue. I went on three tent camping trips last year and definitely got in my steps during the night. ๐ #funny #makingfunofoldpeople #makingfunofme
Lyrics
Verse 1 Now I got a thought in my geriatric haze About reliving my backpack days So i dusted off my old sleeping bag and tent and off into the wilderness I went
Verse 2 Well the ground seems to be a lot further away Than it was in my teenage camping days Just as I was snuggling in for the night I felt my first urge at 10:05
Chorus Unzip the Bag and Turn on the light Walk in the dark among the wildlife Find a good spot close to a tree This is camping at 63
verse 2 A couple hours being back in the tent I got to feelin that feeling again I thought itโs getting somewhere near morn But son of a gun it was 12:24
Chorus Unzip the Bag and Turn on the light Walk in the dark among the wildlife Find a good spot close to a tree This is camping at 63
Bridge Well the coyote howls woke me up about 3 I took a walk back to my favorite tree Iโm kinda glad that moon was bright I used up the all juice in my ol flashlight
Chorus Unzip the Bag and Turn on the light Walk in the dark among the wildlife Find a good spot close to a tree This is camping at 63
This is camping at 63

The first urge at 10:05 actually had me laugh out loud. This is so me, and Iโm not even 63!
Ha, I can relate. My wife and I camped a lot in our 40s, we now prefer B&B's. Just turned 68 on Feb 3rd. Cool tune.
Great concept for a song. I really enjoyed the lyrics and delivery. Fun tune right here bravo!
Your song made me smile I'm heading towards 62 myself. I hear you man. I feel your pain.
Oh, so relatable.
Hahaha, this is amazing! Great concept, and you got me laughing! ๐
