It's been a really, really great first week
Six days of hiking, five nights of tarping.
Princeton is the place for me,
Thanks to my leaders, it's no longer frightenin'

O-O-A (Frosh Trip) O-O-A (Having fun!) O-O-A (Gettin' oriented!) O-O-A

We're going out in the woods, the woods,
It's the backcountry livin', livin' with no limits,
The woods, the woods, and we ain't got a shower or a bathroom in sight.
I don't know how it happened, but I can't stop backpacking.
It's OA, OA, I'm hooked, OA.

Leader training was the clear next move,
Hard skills, soft skills, group facilitation.
Now I'm taking out my very own groups,
Passing on my love of nature.

O-O-A (Leader radar) O-O-A (LNT) O-O-A (risk balls) O-O-A

We're going out on the lakes, the lakes,
It's the backcountry livin', livin' with no limits,
The lakes, the lakes, and we ain't got a shower or a bathroom in sight.
I don't know how it happened, but I can't stop kayaking.
It's OA, OA, I'm hooked, OA.

It's got me singing like,
Woah, come on, ohh, get outside, woah, everybody now, ohh

Just don't stop, let's keep the momentum,
Keep OA going, all the year long.
It's the best thing at Princeton, we know it,
One thousand people cannot be wrong.

Just don't stop, let's keep the momentum,
Keep OA going, all through the year.
There's no place, like in the outdoors,
To choose to be challenged, conquer your fears.

Got, tests and papers and they're bringin us down
And, if we had OA all the year round
Then, ain't no schoolwork gonna stop us ya know, cause out's the way to go!

Everybody!
Woah, come on, ohh, all you Tigers
Woah, let me hear you now, ohh

The woods, the woods, it's the backcountry livin', livin' with no limits,
Woods, the woods, and we ain't got a shower or a bathroom in sight.
I don't know how it happened, but I can't stop backpackin'
It's OA, OA, I'm hooked, OA.
It's OA, OA, I need, OA.
Yeah it's OA, OA, I bleed, OA.

Just singing like
Woah, come on, ohh, all you party people,
Woah, Princetonians, ohh, even the freshmen

Just don't stop, let's keep the momentum,
Keep OA going, all through the year.
There's no place, like in the outdoors,
To choose to be challenged, conquer your fears.

Just don't stop, let's keep the momentum,
Keep OA going, for years to come,
Win ten thousand bucks, make it possible
To bring the outdoors to everyone.
