Gumboot heroes
splashing in the rain
two caped crusaders
bring the challenge on
wagon wheels in our pockets a nickel buys the day
hide and seek the adventure that we play
double dog dare ya to be as brave
a budding buccaneer
swathed with yellow gumboots
a princess with a tiara demands purple
but then she is only four
stand by you forever
spit and hope to die
my word is my bond
what else do I have to give
double dog dare ya
to jump as high
...as me
no puddle ever too deep
no dream ever too far
a promise is a promise
don't ja know don't ja know
two untouched treasures priceless trust and innocence
best friends forever
what else would best friends
