The Curling Song - Lyrics
"Curling is good fun, so leave the pub And this is how it's done, and join a club There's nothing that's at all un-ortho-dox."
"Sliding down the ice, four mates or spouses It can be so nice, aim for two houses Be careful with the hand that cradles the rock."
"The stone slows to a creep, It's time for you to sweep. You didn't calculate the right amount of weight(to hurl). Gradually you learn, how to make it turn, or rather, as they say, to make it curl."
"When it comes to winter sport, when it is cold It is generally thought, so we are told That hockey is the game to which we flock."
"But if you actually play, part-ici-pate then curling wins the day, it's really great In Canada, more people curl than hock."
"And the hero who can curl, always gets the girl. She tells the friend she phones that he plays with the stones. And she will be his bride, together they will slide. He will, naturally, sweep her off her feet."
