From the recording Adirondack Blue
Lyrics
Black Fly Song
Roy Hurd/Amy Kohanski
Two swarms of black flies one left one right
I hear em talking amongst them selves
Should we eat em here or bring em to the swamp
Swat run save yourselves
I sure pity my friends from the city
They planned their vacation a year ago
Been raining for a week they aint left their tent
And they got three kids woah
Chorus:
Just another day in the Adirondacks
Late May early June
The bugs are wicked and the rain won’t quit
And I’m going crazy as a loon
Flip the kayak diving for the food sack
Moose Pond water is freezing cold
Spirit dwindlin got no kindlin
Can’t get a fire to go
Got a good campsite next to an outhouse
Just in case I gotta go number 2
Never knew squirrels ate toilet paper
Sure stinks just sittin here what am I gonna do
Repeat Chorus:
Redford Diner couldn’t be finer
Adirondack surf n turf
Bullhead and woodchuck yum yum eat it up
Chug a lug a root beer (burp)
Repeat Chorus:
Out of the blue the sun comes out
In these mountains of my birth
Forget about that nasty stuff
There’s not a more beautiful place on earth
Repeat Chorus:
