The Wood Badge Root Beer Song

Rick Seymour, a frequent poster on Scouts-L, recently passed along the words, with fair warning to young readers, to The Root Beer Song, as found in a new Wood Badge PowerPoint: Teaching the Edge. The PowerPoint is available at: http://www.nylt-ysdc.org/edge.ppt.

"The Root Beer Song"

Dough – The stuff that buys my root beer
Ray – The guy that pours my root beer
Me – The guy that drinks my root beer
Fa – a long way to the john
So – Let’s have another root beer
La – A lotta lotta root beer
Tea – No thanks, I’m having root beer
And that leaves me with no dough, dough, dough, dough (repeat)

"We've had CEOs on our board say they want to send their people to Wood Badge, our adult leader training program, because we use state-of-the-art techniques (Chief Scout Executive Robert Mazzuca).
