Camp Song, Girl Scouts

This song teaches a lesson about
minding your own affairs.
It was taught to me by a group of Junior Girl Scouts.
Oh I stuck my head in a little skunk hole
And the little skunk said, "Upon my soul!
Take it out, take it out, take it out, remove it!"
Well, I didn't take it out and the little skunk said
"If you don't take it out, you'll wish you were dead.
TAKE IT OUT, TAKE IT OUT, TAKE IT OUT !!!"
Shhhh....(squirt sound )
I removed it.
