Notes:A humorous camp song honoring the mighty Hobart dishwashing machine found in many Scout camp kitchens. Best sung with dramatic flair and group enthusiasm.

COh, the Hobart in the kitchen, it's a G7mighty fine machine,

It Cwashes all the dishes and it Fkeeps them nice and clean.

It Ceats a hundred plates a day and Fnever makes a scene,

The Cpride of G7all the Ccamp!


CGlory, glory to the Hobart!

G7Glory, glory to the Hobart!

CGlory, glory to the Hobart!

It Fwashes G7all our Cplates!


CIt's hotter than a sauna and it G7steams up all the air,

The Cclatter and the rumble give the Fcook staff quite a scare.

But the Cfood keeps on a-comin' and the Fplates go through with care,

So Cno one G7has to Cscrub!


CGlory, glory to the Hobart!

G7Glory, glory to the Hobart!

CGlory, glory to the Hobart!

It Fwashes G7all our Cplates!


It Crattles like a freight train when it G7starts its mighty run,

The Csteam comes rolling out and makes the Fdishes smell like sun.

The Ccook crew cheers and sings a song when Fdish patrol is done-

CPraise the G7Hobart Cbrave!


CGlory, glory to the Hobart!

G7Glory, glory to the Hobart!

CGlory, glory to the Hobart!

It Fwashes G7all our Cplates!


The Cplates are slick as seal pups and the G7silverware is clean,

No Cneed to scrape or scrub or soak, just Ffeed it like a machine.

The Ckitchen shines like glory 'cause it's FHobart's great routine-

A Cdream for G7KP Ccrews!


CGlory, glory to the Hobart!

G7Glory, glory to the Hobart!

CGlory, glory to the Hobart!

It Fwashes G7all our Cplates!


The Csoap is super concentrated, G7hot enough to melt,

It Cscalded off my nametag and it Fshrunk my leather belt.

But Cstill I send in dishes with a Fjoy I've never felt-

CAll hail the G7Hobart Cbeast!


CGlory, glory to the Hobart!

G7Glory, glory to the Hobart!

CGlory, glory to the Hobart!

It Fwashes G7all our Cplates!
