Dead South - Matterhorn Lyrics

Matterhorn Song Lyrics
Matterhorn by Dead South We started out from Bern one sunny August morn
There was just the four of us against the Matterhorn
There was Albert the Australian and John the Irishman
Me and Bill from Britain, mad dogs in the sun

Matterhorn, Matterhorn
Men have tried and men have died to climb the Matterhorn
That mighty Matterhorn
Two miles up we lost John and our rations fell below

Now Al and Bill are lying beneath an avalanche of snow
Now here I am alone now and I know I cannot stop
Two more yards in front of me until I reach the top

Matterhorn, Matterhorn
Men have tried and men have died to climb the Matterhorn
That mighty Matterhorn

Now here I am a dying upon the Matterhorn

Not a grave for me to lie in nor grave keep me warm
The Queen would surely knight me if I could get back down
But it's closer here to heaven than it is back to the ground

Matterhorn, Matterhorn
Men have tried and men have died to climb the Matterhorn
That mighty Matterhorn
That mighty Matterhorn
