Classic camp song that the scouts will usually take and turn into a loud stomping song.
Burl Ives' rendition is a little more mellow than how it's sung up at camp.
Lyrics
There are snakes, snakes, snakes Big as garden rakes, At the store! At the store! There are snakes, snakes, snakes, Big as garden rakes, at the Quartermaster's store.
Chorus My eyes are dim I can-not see. I have not got my specs with me. I have HEY! Not HO! got my specs with me.
There are mice, mice, mice Running though the rice, At the store! At the store! There are mice, mice, mice, Running through the rice, at the Quartermaster's store.
Chorus Continue with each of the following: 3. lice - living on the mice. 4. rats - big as alley cats. 5. roaches - big as football coaches 6. watches - big as sasquaches 7. snakes - big as garden rakes 8. bears - but no one really cares 9. beavers - with little meat cleavers 10. foxes - stuffed in little boxes
