my swan song

A few of my favorite family campers wrote this song for me and I wanted to share it because it was so cute! It's sung to the tune of "Pharaoh, Pharaoh" which is sung to the tune of "Louie, Louie..."

Bangor told me the other day
She was in the office and could not play.
She started as a camper many years ago.
She's had many jobs but it's time to go!

Chorus: Bangor, Bangor! Oh, Mandy, please don't go! (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!)

So me and my family go to Family Camp.
It's been raining all week and we're really damp.
Not from the rain, but from our tears,
Cause Bangor's gonna leave after all these years!

Chorus: Bangor, Bangor! Oh, Mandy, please don't go! (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!)

Well, Ryan Ebner's leavin', too!
What do you think that they should do?
They should return as family campers next year!
Here's your invitation to join us here!

Chorus: Ebner, Ebner! (And Bangor!) Oh, Ryan (and Mandy!) Please don't go! (Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!)

  1. That is awesome! I canNOT imagine Lutherlyn without you. However, you're kinda like an unshakeable tic, so I don't think those family campers have much to worry about ;)

  2. that's so cute. when julie was about 10, she was a GFI camper and they made up a song about their counselor and his aerobie (you know, a frisbee-thingy with a hole in it.) i wasn't even at camp that year, but i remember HER song! Lutherlyn has a way of sticking in your head. And that song that they wrote you is awesome!
