NORTH
WALES ROCK CLIMBING SONG
(Sung to the tune of 'I've been a Wild Rover')
I’m
bumbly, seldom humbly and I’m half way up the rocks
And one thing’s for certain I’m going to drop
I’ll lose all my runners, my slings and belays
Oh I don’t wear a helmet or a pair of PA’s
(Chorus)
And its No Nay Never, No Nay Never No More
That I’ll be a rock climber No Never No More
I
go out for weekends to rainy North Wales
But my main occupation is sampling the ales
I stand in the pub surrounded by mates
And boast of the day that I soloed grade six
(Chorus)
I
once had an epic it was only V Diff
I found the climb gripping. I was bloody scared stiff
I couldn’t move up, I couldn’t move down
So I untied the rope and jumped to the ground
(Chorus)
I
walked to the bottom and looked up to the top
And one things for certain at the bottom I’ll stop
I get out the Trangia and make some tea
And there I will fester for the rest of the day
(Chorus)
Well
I’ve seen all the films and I’ve read all the books
What I lack in technique ……well I make up in looks
I look at the sky and I look at the floor
I look at the rocks and say never no more.
(Chorus)
