2023 Long Walk Song Lyrics [To the tune of “Bright Morning Star” by The Oyster Ban] Long Walk '23 is arising It is dark and the moon is shining We are hard at work preparing Day is a breaking, in my soul When did we become dear brothers? We have pulled each other up mountains We have hiked through rain and lightning Nancy Brook is calling, in my soul Each of us has fought with demons We have been each other's guardians See how we've turned into lions Fellowship is forming in my soul [To the tune of “Some Nights” by fun] Some like the stanky leg, some like the knuckle draggers Some like to do the Martin Some trails feel like our feet might never be the same Some trails we need a high 5 train But we still get hype, we are blue not green Bondalalay is the gas for this machine (Ohh woah oh oh) Give it up for long walk (Ooh woah oh oh) Give it up for long walk Of 2023 Oh, were the long walk, were the long walk '23 Oh were the long walk, were the long walk '23 Day one we hardly break a sweat, from flume until Lafayette, AMC hut knows that we're on the long walk Chased off the peak by lightning strikes Fluming the diggly at campsite Greenie meanies work like a dream Please no double-dipping in the Vaseline Legs feel tight Down in Nancy Brook for tub tonight The Chili's warm, fills us with thoughts of what's ahead, what's ahead, we go to Bed to get up at 4am Tuesday is Moriah, the Carters and the Wildcats Slow and steady decline broke most of our knees Fuelled by Green Goblin, we rose to meet the challenge, Prezzies will feel like a piece of cake compared to these Oh it's days like this, that help us grow our wings All this amazing lore to keep us going (Ohh woah oh oh) Give it up for long walk (Ooh woah oh oh) Give it up for long walk Of 2023 Oh long walk x 4 Day three comes around, our third traverse We take on the presidents one by one, We see a wall, we smash it down Through the clouds into the sun 24 hours and we'll show you grit, Seize the day and then run with it We are mountain goats, we are fever dogs Maybe we will make it into Rachel's vlogs Oh, were the long walk, were the long walk '23 Oh were the long walk, were the long walk '23 [To the tune of “California Dreamin'” by The Mamas and the Papas] Stepped onto Sawyer Road From the tunnel of trees Got blisters on my feet (blisters on my feet) Road walking is a breeze (it is a breeze) We get back to our campsite (Back to our campsite) Food never tasted so good (never tasted so good) Long Walk '23 Is cruising like we should (cruising like we should) We head to Vermont As Friday comes around Never been done before (never been done before) Breaking new ground (breaking new ground) Hell Brook's the devil's trail (Hell Brook devil's trail) The forehead, nose, and chin (forehead, nose, and chin) Long Walk '23 Rack up another win (another win) We hit the hardest trails, We had the toughest curve balls We all had the chance to turn (had the chance to turn) But the Long Walk calls (the Long Walk calls) Triumph meets us at the bus (meets us at the bus) Steak's a real treat (steak's a real treat) Long Walk '23 (now we can rest our feet) Long Walk '23 (now we can rest our feet) Long Walk '23 Now we can rest our feet [To the tune of “Bright Morning Star” by The Oyster Ban] Long Walk '23 is returning It is gold and the sun is setting Sometimes words just can't explain things Long Walk, forever be in my soul

This is the 2022 Long Walk song which encapsulates their week in the Whites. ~To the tune of “Replay” by Iyaz~ Long Walk 2022 Grey and Blue All these peaks and views Got me singing out With my brothers every day Let's have a railroad Hip hip hooray hooray We woke up Monday morn To a rumbling thunderstorm Where will the ceremony be? Not Baird Hall please Keep it at Eastbourne Let's flat walk beneath the trees To avoid another lightning scare No bridge to cross the Pemi You can wade across if you dare No summits pass the hummus need to refuel Quick M-N-M at Ethan Pond Baptism holy vision at Thoreau Falls Sun broke as we sang a psalm Henry pass the Vaseline Moleskin too Water in my shoes won't be stopping me 20 miles everyday To the bus – Joe, take us away away Long Walk 2022 Grey and Blue All these peaks and views Got me singing out With my brothers every day Let's have a railroad Hip hip hooray hooray 4 am on Presi day Hype circle got us on our grind Charged up Mt Madison Adams and Jefferson To make the traverse on time Though Richard was feeling ill He pushed himself over Mt Clay An EMT said he needs help Had to make sure our boy's okay! Hiked off the summit of Washington Escaped the brick and fog Bagged Monroe and then bailed out Live free and ride the cog! Henry pass the Vaseline Moleskin too Water in my shoes won't be stopping me 20 miles everyday To the bus – Joe, take us away away Long Walk 2022 Grey and Blue All these peaks and views Got me singing out With my brothers every day Let's have a railroad Hip hip hooray hooray ray— ~To the tune of “Mr. Blue Sky” by Electric Light Orchestra~ Ray ray tai tai sis sis boom ba (x2) Feet are aching no surprise But thanks to sunny skies We're off to Zealand Zeacliff head wall has us feeling not too great But we'll motor to the Bonds There's a dog inside of you (woof, woof, woof!) Fighting to get through Top of Guyot Would you like a squirt of Mio for the view A-10 Warthogs flying high Bondcliff knife edge Posed on the ledge Only halfway we still have so long (so long) To descend We hit our flow We didn't slow We never dreamed we would hike 90 (miles) In the whites Ray ray tai tai sis sis boom ba (x2) Hey Joe leave the bus behind Your wife has been on your mind For her birthday, we'll hike Carrigain real early and besides Thunderstorms are in the sky Trail work's looking pretty fine Desolation took no time! At the tower Sang 519 felt God's power, roadwalked on Nancy tubbin' feels sublime We hit our flow We didn't slow We never dreamed we would hike 90 (miles) In the whites Stay strong long walk crew 18 more and then we're through Chocorua and White Ledge too Richard's back we are renewed Trail gremlins unite We'll be eating steak tonight Granite scramble pure delight Wyatt's toes aren't looking right Ray ray tai tai sis sis boom ba (x2) 90 miles was a blast Too bad it couldn't last We'll remember all the laughs and how we had each other's backs Over every mountain We'll be Long Walk lovin' boys Duck dinner hit Feels good to sit Shared all our stories with Mr. Michael (Michael) And Jennifer 5 days (long miles!) Sleep trails (big smiles!) Records (for the files!) Long Walk 5 days (long miles!) Sleep trails (big smiles!) Records (for the files!) Long Walking with you '22
