Campfire Kansas Lyrics - The Get Up Kids

Woke up at eight, started a fire 

had a few drinks, we all felt inspired 

jumped in the stream, our shoes and canteens 

the water is bitter cold 

laid in the raft till it started moving 

the current just sang, the song was so soothing 

we stopped along the way 

on a beach in the sun on a beautiful day 

our boats collide, we feel the breeze 

we stay afloat and make the most of everything 

by noon we had swung the ropes in the woods 

missed all dangers, snakes and the floods 

burned by the rays and next to our legs, the water so bitter cold 

lunch had been saved along with the lighters 

wet cigarettes serve us as reminders 

never trust a man with food, change of clothes, and a drink in his hand 

our boats collide, we feel the breeze 

we stay afloat and make the most of everything 

the sun will set, the stars would shine 

the trees would shake, we'd all feel fine 

let's take the moon and make it shine for everyone 

we'd laugh away the sunburn 

as we laughed away his day 

what we lost means nothing 

for the memories will stay 

caught the last bus, with no time to linger 

driver seemed to be missing a finger 

i turned and looked away to the bus, gravel road and a beautiful day 

our boats collide, we feel the breeze 

we stay afloat and make the most of everything 

the sun will set, the stars would shine 

the trees would shake, we'd all feel fine 

let's take the moon and make it shine for everyone 

let's take the moon and make it shine for everyone
