Graffiti 129

This reminds me of a song we use to sing at camp- "Alice The Camel". It's an absurd chant-type counting song. This goofy picture reminds me of song&story time after lunch. The whole camp would gather, probably 50 or so kids, and I'd lead them all in a series of these funny almost child-folk songs. Passed down for decades, the original artists totally forgotten. "Cannibal King" "Billboard Song" "Wishy-Washy-Washer Woman" "3 Little Angles" most of them with some truly bizarre content in retrospect.

I kind of found my singing voice as a camper and as a camp leader. So this little green camel brings back a lot of good memories.
