Idag fick jag sån lust att sjunga lite under min paddling. Det är så härligt att sjunga något som ger en lagom rytm som passar till paddeltagen! Här kommer dom....
Och här är texten som den skulle vara om jag lyckats komma ihåg den. Jag skyller på att det var 35 år sedan jag lärde mig låten, så den har halkat ur minnet lite även om den är enkel. Detta är en låt man sjunger då man paddlar eller ror och om man är flera personer så sjunger man den i kanon.
My paddle's keen and bright
Flashing with silver
Follow the wild goose flight
Dip, dip and swing!
Dip, dip and swing her back
Flashing with silver,
Follow the wild goose flight
Dip, dip and swing!
Och här kommer den fullständiga texten till den.
(från filmen “O brother where art thou”, en film som handlar om en märklig händelse några småbusar är med om under USA:s ekonomiska depression på 1930-talet)
As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good ol' way
And who shall wear the starry crown
Good Lord, show me the way
O sisters, let's go down
Let's go down, come on down
O sisters, let's go down
Down in the river to pray
As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good ol' way
And who shall wear the robe and crown
Good Lord, show me the way
O brothers, let's go down
Let's go down, come on down
Come on, brothers, let's go down
Down in the river to pray
As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good ol' way
And who shall wear the starry crown
Good Lord, show me the way
O fathers, let's go down
Let's go down, come on down
O fathers, let's go down
Down in the river to pray
As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good ol' way
And who shall wear the robe and crown
Good Lord, show me the way
O mothers, let's go down
Come on down, don't you wanna go down?
Come on, mothers, let's go down
Down in the river to pray
As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good ol' way
And who shall wear the starry crown
Good Lord, show me the way
O sinners, let's go down
Let's go down, come on down
O sinners, let's go down
Down in the river to pray
As I went down in the river to pray
Studying about that good ol' way
And who shall wear the robe and crown
Good Lord, show me the way
