The Campfire Song (original song) by Doug Newman

"The Campfire Song" is a song of mine from my albums "Bugs and Critters", "Red Beans and Rice and Other Songs of the Dusty Trail" and "The Sandhill Waltz". I'm playing it here with my Gibson LG-2 guitar. You can download it at itunes.com. Here are the lyrics:

The Campfire Song

When you've been out on the trail all day
And you want to find a place to stay
And you want a campfire that smells real good
Make sure and find some hickory wood

Campfires can keep you warm at night
When you're sleeping below the stars shining bright
And the Coyote's howling above to the moon
And the hoot owl is hooting
He's wondering who

Kipee ki yi yea get along little doggie
We'll soon be singing campfire songs
Kipee ki yi yea get along little doggie
We'll roast marshmallows before long
While singing our campfire songs

Campfires can smell real good at night
When you find some hickory wood just right
And you cook up some chili or pork and beans
Grab your guitar and start yodeling

Chorus
