OOO, I want to linger
OOO, a little longer
OOO, a little longer here with you.
OOO, it's such a perfect night
OOO, it doesn't seem quite right,
OOO, that this should be our last with you.
OOO, and come September
OOO, we will remember,
OOO, our camping days and friendships true.
OOO, and as the years go by,
OOO, I'll think of you and sigh,
OOO, this is "good night" and not "good-bye".
Green trees around us
Blue sky above
Friends all around us
In a world filled with love
Taps sounding softly
Hearts beating true
As campers sing good night
To you
Days done
Gone the sun
From the lakes
From the hills
From the skies
All is well
safely rest
God is nigh'
