Battle Of Cucamonga lyrics

THE BATTLE OF CUCAMONGA
Homer and Jethro

In Nineteen and fifty-nine we took a little hike
With our Scoutmaster down to Lake Aneekanike
We took a little pizza and we took some sauerkraut
And we marched along together till we heard the Girl Scouts

Oh, we`re the boys from Camp Cucamonga
Our mothers sent us here for to study Nature`s ways
We learn to make sparks by rubbing sticks together
But if we catch the girls then we`ll set the woods ablaze
(And I was mad `cause me mother sent me up here - ha ha ha)

Well, we crept up to the water and we seen the girls a-swimmin`
There must have been a hunnered of them pretty young women
They looked so fine even birds forgot to sing
We laid down in the poison oak and didn`t say a thing

Oh, we`re the boys from Camp Cucamonga
Our mothers sent us here for to study Nature`s ways
We learn to make sparks by rubbing sticks together
But if we catch the girls then we`ll set the woods ablaze
(Hey, will one of you fellers scratch my back?)

Well, our counselor said we could take `em by surprise
If we didn`t say a word till we looked `em in the eyes
We kept real still, and we had our eyes a-glued
We saw how they were dressed - they were swimming in the...

Well, now, we`re the boys from Camp Cucamonga
Our mothers sent us here for to study Nature`s ways
We learn to make sparks by rubbing sticks together
But if we catch the girls then we`ll set the woods ablaze

Well, they ran through the briars and they ran through the
brambles
And they ran through the bushes where a rabbit couldn`t go
They ran so fast even we couldn`t catch `em
>From Lake Aneekanike all the way to Buffalo
(Hey, fellers, wait for me!)

Well, we ran right after them till everyone was pooped
So we rested for a minute and our forces we regrouped
Then we saw the girls behind some evergreens
Captured by a company of United States Marines

Oh, we`re the boys from Camp Cucamonga
Our mothers sent us here for to study Nature`s ways
We learn to make sparks by rubbing sticks together
But if we catch the girls then we`ll set the woods ablaze
(Ah, them big guys get everything!)

Well, they ran through the briars and they ran through the
brambles
And they ran through the bushes where a rabbit couldn`t go
They ran so fast even we couldn`t catch `em
>From Lake Aneekanike all the way to Buffalo

(A rooty toot toot, a rooty toot toot
Oh, we are the boys from the Boy Scout troop
We don`t smoke, and we don`t chew
And we don`t go with the girls that do
