I Used to Be a Boy Scout Lyrics & Tabs by Breaking Laces
I Used to Be a Boy Scout
guitar chords lyrics
Merit badges merit badges made me rich
In knowledge of the woods and the mighty clove hitch
But missing from the string of the wisdom pearls
Was a skill award telling you how to get girls
Still I go out to the bars every week to try and meet her
And what do you mean, what is a troop patrol leader?
Yeah I heard it all before, I know you think it was lame
But girl if you are drowning, guess who's gonna save you
And I wonder can you help me out
I'm looking for a girl scout
A thin mint for my hungry mouth
Klondike Klondike riding through the snow
We did and won the crowd even though our sled broke
And yeah those gold nuggets didn't add up to cash
But there's no amount of money can buy a full sash
We did and won the crowd even though our sled broke
And yeah those gold nuggets didn't add up to cash
But there's no amount of money can buy a full sash
Which draped across your chest makes you look a little regal
And everybody knows that you're hanging with an eagle
If you're lost in the woods hiking on your vacay
Give me a compass and a map I'll help you find the way
And I wonder can you help me out
I'm looking for a girl scout
A thin mint for my hungry mouth
Thrifty, clean, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, friendly
I can start your fire without using lighter fluid
I can do a lot of things that you might think are stupid
If we're stuck in the rain on a desert island set
I'll gather up some birch bark it lights when it's wet
And I wonder can you help me out
I'm looking for a girl scout
A thin mint for my hungry mouth
