| Notes: | Classic Scout hiking song. The "tramp tramp tramp" works well for marching or hiking in formation. Fun to exaggerate the "ten, twenty, thirty, forty, fifty miles a day" for humor. |
Tramp, tramp, tramp, tramp,
Tramp, tramp, tramp,tramp.
I'm happy when I'm hiking, pack upon my back.
I'm happy when I'm hiking, off the beaten track.
Out in the open country, that's the place for me
With a true Scouting friend, to the journeys end,
Ten, twenty, thirty, fourty, fifty miles a day.
Tramp, tramp, tramp, tramp,
Tramp, tramp, tramp,tramp.
