Songs from the African Caravan Nile Hilton Banquet

[PeeWee]

The youngsters on the African Caravan prepared a musical skit. The music today is archaic, but not then.

The lyrics written by the kids told the story of our travels through Africa. Many of the images were pogniat.

Here is the third song.


3. TELL ME WHY- Tune: - Same
.
Tell me why my axles break

Tell me why for goodness sake

I try and try, but still they bust

A stronger Axle just must be a must.

The rest of the songs can be found at the Sierra Nevada website.

I hope that you will look up the websites and hum a little tune. Be sure and feel the emotions and actions that occurred on the Caravan.

Have a good read.
