Each Sunday at Camp, we sing a song called “I wanna go back to Camp DeSoto!” after Sunday lunch in the Dining Hall. Each table writes and sings a verse about something we’ve done together or something they are looking forward to.

Here are the verses from the last Sunday of First Term!

I wanna go back, I wanna go back to Camp DeSoto
I wanna go back to the Camp I love

Where the Porkies made us cry and we’re sad to say goodbye
Take me back to Camp DeSoto!

I wanna go back, I wanna go back to Camp DeSoto
I wanna go back to the Camp I love

Where we love the Porkies dear and we can’t hold back our tears
Take me back to Camp DeSoto!

I wanna go back, I wanna go back to Camp DeSoto
I wanna go back to the Camp I love

Where we love to sing at Glee but we missed the Earth Monkey
Take me back to Camp DeSoto!

I wanna go back, I wanna go back to Camp DeSoto
I wanna go back to the Camp I love

Where we sang with Alpine and we’re sad to say bye
Take me back to Camp DeSoto!

I wanna go back, I wanna go back to Camp DeSoto
I wanna go back to the Camp I love

Where we love the Porkies the most and we “say it’s french toast!”
Take me back to Camp DeSoto!

I wanna go back, I wanna go back to Camp DeSoto
I wanna go back to the Camp I love

Where we all have to go and we will miss the Porkies so
Take me back to Camp DeSoto!

I wanna go back, I wanna go back to Camp DeSoto
I wanna go back to the Camp I love

Where we watched The Greatest Show and we love the Porkies so
Take me back to Camp DeSoto!

I wanna go back, I wanna go back to Camp DeSoto
I wanna go back to the Camp I love

Where we love DeSoto and Porkies, please don’t go
Take me back to Camp DeSoto!

I wanna go back, I wanna go back to Camp DeSoto
I wanna go back to the Camp I love

Where we had fun at Glee and we love our Porkies
Take me back to Camp DeSoto!

I wanna go back, I wanna go back to Camp DeSoto
I wanna go back to the Camp I love

Where we’re sad to leave this land and we missed the Trash Can Band
Take me back to Camp DeSoto!

I wanna go back, I wanna go back to Camp DeSoto
I wanna go back to the Camp I love

Where the fireworks were litty and “it’s alright to be little bitty!”
Take me back to Camp DeSoto!

I wanna go back, I wanna go back to Camp DeSoto
I wanna go back to the Camp I love

Where we love the Fourth of July and soon we’ll say goodbye
Take me back to Camp DeSoto!

I wanna go back, I wanna go back to Camp DeSoto
I wanna go back to the Camp I love

Where we hate to see the Porkies go and “this is the Greatest Show!”
Take me back to Camp DeSoto!

I wanna go back, I wanna go back to Camp DeSoto
I wanna go back to the Camp I love

Where for the Court we were sat for Ilkla Moor Bah Tat
Take me back to Camp DeSoto!

I wanna go back, I wanna go back to Camp DeSoto
I wanna go back to the Camp I love

Where we don’t wanna say goodbye and the Porkies are making us cry
Take me back to Camp DeSoto!

I wanna go back, I wanna go back to Camp DeSoto
I wanna go back to the Camp I love

Where we love Trip Day and we sang the night away
Take me back to Camp DeSoto!

I wanna go back, I wanna go back to Camp DeSoto
I wanna go back to the Camp I love

Where we travelled far and wide and to Alpine we said, “hi!”
Take me back to Camp DeSoto!

I wanna go back, I wanna go back to Camp DeSoto
I wanna go back to the Camp I love

Where Camp has changed our lives and we’ll be back in 2029!
Take me back to Camp DeSoto!

I wanna go back, I wanna go back to Camp DeSoto
I wanna go back to the Camp I love

Where the girls are true to the red, white, and blue
Take me back to Camp DeSoto!
