Long Lake was the place to be<\/p>\n
At the camp, I couldn\u2019t wait to see<\/p>\n
1960 I think it was<\/p>\n
This place to make memories of how it should be<\/p>\n
The water as crystal as it could be<\/p>\n
The fish to catch waiting for me<\/p>\n
A turtle to catch for one short week<\/p>\n
This place to make memories of how it should be<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The night a moose came to our door<\/p>\n
Its call was frightful to me a roar<\/p>\n
My mother she came to my distress<\/p>\n
This place to make memories of how it should be<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
My brothers there to play with me<\/p>\n
When not looking for girls to see<\/p>\n
We all together and all carefree<\/p>\n
This place to make memories of how it should be<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Each morning the baker delivered to us<\/p>\n
Fresh bread, cakes, donuts, for us to buss<\/p>\n
The fire would glow and fill us with glee<\/p>\n
This place to make memories of how it should be<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The best memories are those so sweet<\/p>\n
But all memories will eventually fleet<\/p>\n
No plea we make can make them see<\/p>\n
