Git' your foot a stompin' and your hand a slappin' to this lil' rendition of the 2008 season by the very creative & talented Elodie Ghedin:
Oh Regatta
(to the tune of 'Oh Susanna')
Early mornings, hair undone
We wear our slim outfits
Black is in, as fashion says
But Jeffrey gets all pissed
"I can't see youuuu" he says,
We roll our eyes
Even though we're hard to see
It really thins our thighs
Chorus:
Don and Jeff
We wish you'd feel our pain
All we do is row and row
And kilos we still gain
The Pittsford race was really fun
And all our nails were done
Then we rowed and broke them all
The glam is now all gone
Chorus:
Oh Regatta
After all we're girls
We love to win lots of bling
It's better than pearls
Schuylkill Navy here we come
Sailors all around
Lu and Connie got riled up
Their singles went to town
Chorus:
U.S. Navy
We're just a little mad
We wanted to see sailor boys
Not their freakin' dads
Diamond State oh what a bust
Tsunami, hurricane
Weather sucked but crabs were good
I guess that's why we came.
Chorus:
Oh Regatta
Let's skip it for next year
Our fashion guru Wendy says
Bibs are so last year
Cuyahoga was first rate
With lots of twists and turns
But boy could Sonya navigate
So medals we could earn
Chorus:
Don and Jeff
Our butts are not that tough
With all that sliding in the seat
It gets a little rough
HOTO, Here we go at home
The race is ours to 'git'
Lightning struck half way passed one
We dropped our oars and split
Chorus:
Oh Regatta
We loved the Stewards' Pier
So wieners we did chow upon
And finished off with beer
Then we practiced for the Charles
It's more than we can bear
All that getting up at dawn
For sleep we cannot spare
Chorus:
Heckenstaller
Be careful don't you crash
Next time ride around the crowd
So you don't break your ass
Then to Speakmon we did go
Rebecca was the cox
"C'MON LADIES HIT IT HARD"
"WE'LL KICK THEIR BLEEPING ARSE"
Chorus:
Oh Rebecca
Tell us where we are
That bleeping bleeping finish line
Is really really far
Occoquan is in the Fall
It's chilly to the bones
The only thing that keeps us sane
Is eating Sally's scones
Chorus:
Don and Jeff
We wish you'd feel our pain
We really do enjoy the work
But just love to complain
