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
