[Verse 1]
For your 50th birthday,
I wrote a song, that said all I want to say
The words were sweet, it had a real nice sound
I only wish that I wrote it down
mmm hmm mm hmm mm hmm
[Chorus]
It was a song about all the things we done
Epic Adventures neath the midnight sun
Good friends and crazy creeks and whiskey on the trail
Beers and tears and dreams and schemes and a love that never fails
[Instrumental]
[Verse 2]
Gold Nugget Triathalon
You runnin backwards, me not havin any fun
You sang me 99 bottles on the wall
Got me laughin, trying not to fall
[Interlude]
mmm hmm mm hmm mm hmm
[Verse 3]
Climbing Wolverine in the fog
With Ally Cat and Jamie Dawg
Rained all day, You were froze to the core
Wrung out your gloves, and we climbed some more
[Interlude]
mmm hmm mm hmm mm hmm
[Chorus]
It was a song about all the things we done
Epic Adventures neath the midnight sun
Good friends and crazy creeks and whiskey on the trail
Beers and tears and dreams and schemes and a love that never fails
[Instrumental]
[Verse 4]
Eagle River Yurt, Nature Trail
Ran out of booze, so we had to bail
Crystal Light tails, so obscene
Next morning we were puking green
[Interlude]
mmm hmm mm hmm mm hmm
[Verse 5]
Kayakin Blackstone Bay
So many friends came out to play
Riding icebergs like the rodeo
Winds ripped through like a tornado
[Interlude]
mmm hmm mm hmm mm hmm
[Chorus]
It was a song about all the things we done
Epic Adventures neath the midnight sun
Good friends and crazy creeks and whiskey on the trail
Beers and tears and dreams and schemes and a love that never fails
[Instrumental]
[Verse 6]
We packed your rig, and drove to Haines
My ukulele causing you pain
Caught a ferry, to old Skagway
Got our permit the very next day
[Interlude]
mmm hmm mm hmm mm hmm
[Verse 7]
33 miles, how that Chilkoot winds
Up through the rocks and the snow we climbed
Skinny dipping in a mountain pond
Hoping the Boy Scouts wouldn t come along
[Interlude]
mmm hmm mm hmm mm hmm
[Chorus]
It was a song about all the things we done
Epic Adventures neath the midnight sun
Good friends and crazy creeks and whiskey on the trail
Beers and tears and dreams and schemes and a love that never fails
[Instrumental]
[Verse 8]
Band camp and surfing the waves
So many other things that I should say
But ya see I never wrote it down
Can t quite recall the sound
[Interlude]
mmm hmm mm hmm mm hmm
[Chorus]
It was a song about all the things we done
Epic Adventures neath the midnight sun
Good friends and crazy creeks and whiskey on the trail
Beers and tears and dreams and schemes and a love that never fails
[Outro]
Yeah, Beers and tears and dreams and schemes and a love that never fails
