[pct-l] more bad parodies and ready-made ear worms

[mardav at charter.net (Marion Davison)]

Tune:  "She'll be coming round the mountain when she comes"
Only six hundred miles more to go.
Only six hundred miles more to go.
And if we all get lucky, we'll wind up in Kentucky
Only six hundred miles more to go.

We used this song to torture boy scouts on hikes who were whining, "how 
much further?"  Ray doesn't know where he learned this.  Could have been 
in the 40's in Scouting or in the 50's in the military.

Maybe it fits the AT better, but I have had it stuck in my head for 
hundreds of PCT miles.

Llamas love nothing so much as a good roll in the dirt.  They love to 
roll and raise great clouds of dust as soon as 1) you finish grooming 
them  or 2) you remove their saddle after a long sweaty day.  One of the 
first things you must teach your pack llama is that he is not allowed to 
roll while wearing his saddle and packs.  If you pet a llama's back it 
raises great clouds of dust and gets your hands all dirty.  The only 
person dirtier than a thru hiker is a long distance llama packer. 
Don't bother grooming a llama.  It wastes your time and annoys the llama.
The following parody is only a fragment;  it needs some more hiking 
miles to get tuned up.
 Tune:  Cat Scratch Fever
Dirtbag llamas  (duh-duh-duh)  (electric guitar riff)
Dirtbag llamas (duh-duh-duh-duh)
(repeat)
We all roll in the dirt
As often as we can
we love to get all filthy,
'cause we are llamas, man......

My favorite trail song parody is the one contributed to the list last 
year about Bear Cans, to the tune of "Carry that Weight."
