Being that I'm the person who wrote the song, I do happen to
have the lyrics :) And thanks for asking for them. Knowing
that I was a memorable part of the Philmont experience
really made my day :) Anyway, here they are:
 
Ode to My Burro Part 1 (aka Brown Eyed Burro)
{To the tune of Brown Eyed Girl}
 
Hey what do you know
After the rains came
Coming down from Ponil
Acting sweet and so tame
Hee'in and a-hawin'
Eatin' and a-poopin'
Drinkin' and a-peein'
All along the South Ponil Creek
You, my brown eyed burro
You my brown eyed burro
 
Whatever happened
Why we walking so slow
It's a long way to the Aztec mine
Hurry up, I gotta go
I'm standing in the sunlight baking
Try'en to get you to move
I shoulda brought some Copenhagen
Now I don't know what to do with you
My brown eyed burro
You my brown eyed burro
 
CHORUS
------
Do you remember when ... we used to sing
Hee Haw, Hee Haw, Hee Haw, Hee Haw, Hee Haw, Hee Haw
Hee Haw, Hee Haw, Hee Haw, Hee Haw, Hee Haw, Hee Haw
Hee Haw Hee
(to the la-ti-da tune of the Chorus in the most obnoxious
voice possible)
 
So hard to carry my gear
Now that I'm all on my own
Saw you in the pen the other day
My, how you have grown
Thought about the happier days
Sometimes I'm overcome thinking about
Hikin' and a-haulin'
Oh no, I can't live without you
My brown eyed burro
You my brown eyed burro
 
CHORUS
