Where has all the Count's Beer Gone?

by Goetz von der Krautlache and Gorlan of the Redlands
(To the tune of "Blowin in the Wind")

    Where has all the Count's beer gone?
    Many camps passing,
    Where has all the Count's beer gone?
    Not long ago,
    Where has all the Count's beer gone?
    Washed out to sea
    All but one,
    When will he ever learn,
    When will he ever learn.

    Where did the Count win that beer?
    At the Fat Guy's Beer Pit.
    Did the count drink all that Beer?
    It was too much.
    What did the count do with the Rest?
    Placed it in a stream Bed
    Every one
    When will he ever learn?
    When will he ever learn?

    What then happened in the Night?
    Rain came pouring.
    What else happened in the Night?
    The steam did rise.
    Then what became of all that Beer?
    Washed out to sea
    All but one
    When will he ever learn?
    When will he ever learn?


History. The Story Behind this Song

 At last years Beer Pit Tourney, Count Garick was the winner. There was a stream running through the sites, and he built a small dam and put his winnings there. It rained that night and it all washed away into a lake (at least a case and half). He only recovered one beer.
