Going Camping Lyrics - John Denver

1 I got my gear in my pack 

I got my pack on my back 

Today's the day I'm going camping 

Just got the go ahead sign 

the weather's gonna be fine 

Today's the day I'm going camping 

I'm gonna pitch me a tent 

Won't have to pay any rent 

It looks like ev'rything is "A O.K." 

As far as I can see 

I think it's gonna be a perfect camping day 

2 The trees and animals 

and clear blue skies 

A waterfall comes tumbling right before my eyes 

Birds that fly

above a mountain stream 

It's absolutely perfect better than a dream 

Peace and quiet 

where the Good Lord smiled 

Fields and fields of flowers growing wild 

This is 

just where I belong I'm a mother Nature's child 

3 It's time to hit the trail 

To hit the hill and dale 

Oh, I love hiking in the mountains 

It's great to reach the snow 

And see the world below 

Oh, I love hiking in the mountains 

Each time we stop to eat 

We get to rest our feet 

And we'll make it if we take slow 

'Cause the best way to climb 

Is one step at a time and hicking is the only way to go

I got my gear in my pack 

The trees and animals 

It's time to hit the trail 

I got my pack on my back 

and clear blue skies 

To hit the hill and dale 

Today's the day I'm going camping 

A waterfall comes tumbling right before my eyes 

Oh, I love hiking in the mountains 

Just got the go ahead sign 

Birds that fly 

It's great to reach the snow 

the weather's gonna be fine 

above a moun-tain stream 

And see the world below 

Today's the day I'm goin' camping 

It's absolutely perfect better than a dream 

Oh, I love hiking in the mountains 

I'm gonna pitch me a tent Won't 

Peace and quiet 

Each time we stop to eat 

have to pay any rent 

where the Good Lord smiled 

We get to rest our feet 

It looks like ev'rything is "A O. K." 

Fields and fields of flowers growing wild 

And we'll make it if we take it slow 

As far as I can see

just where I belong 

Is one step at a time 

a perfect camping day 

I'm a mother Nature's child 

and hiking is the only way to go
