The first verse of “The Rangers of the NPS” is (sung to the tune of Battle Hymn of the Republic):Oh who's the one who minds the park and keeps us safe from harm?
Who spanks the bear and feeds the deer and keeps the geysers warm? Who is it that we call for when we fell the least alarm? The Rangers of the NPS.
