The Gambler by Kenny Rogers

On a warm summers morning
On a bus bound to Andro
I met up with my old friends
Whom I missed and hadn’t seen –
So we took turns a sharin’
All our memories of summer
And the times that lay ahead of us
That we couldn’t wait to greet

And then we started talkin’
Bout the friends that last forever
The intense competition
That we all came here for
But always in the end
It brought us closer together
Cause forming all these friendships
That’s what camp is for 

Then we thought about Stan and Barbara
Who would help us when we’re troubled
Acting like a mom and dad
To help us through the night
And Peter and Roberta
With their little daughter Katie
Formed another family
And made it all seem right.
 
Chorus
 
It’s our home for the summer
Camp Androscoggin
With good times all around us
Always having fun
With warm lasting friendships
Memories forever
Cause these are the good times that
Will stay with us when summer’s done

Every camper knows
That the secret to survival
Is knowing how to get away from the painful grip of Stu
But all of us believe
That he’s one in a million
And camp without him
Is like life not being true

And when we finished speakin’
We looked out at the Getty
As smiles of joy from everyone
As far as I could see
And passing through the gates
With camp spread out before us
We realized that Andro was
The place for us to be

 
Chorus (twice)
