Hoonah - Tune of Camptown Races

We're on an Alaska cruise - Hoonah Hoonah Seeing many scenic views - all de Hoonah day Gonna sail all night - gonna sail all day Spending money in the tourist shops - all de Hoonah day Skagway, Juneau, no debate - Hoonah, Hoonah All seem similar 'til Icy Strait - where the Tlingit stay Hoonah is the town - not of great renown Grizzlies, whales and people coexist - that's the Hoonah way Souvenirs seem much less tacky here - in Hoonah Hoonah Authenticity won't disappear - all de Hoonah day Though it's quite remote - it will get my vote As a place you'll be surprised to like - all de Hoonah day
