The acoustic confession of a lifer. Pants one leg at a time, sweater holding all the pins. And a request: when the time comes, lay me down with my curling gear.
Lyrics
Huuuh, huuuh, huuuh, huuuh, huuuh
Sweepin′ down the ice, with dreams of glory
Every brush stroke is writin' my story
From the first stone thrown to the final end
This old curlin′ broom is like a dear friend
And the shoes on my feet, hold the ice tight
Out on the sheet, they keep me upright
Slip off the gripper, time to throw
Gliding on my slider I'm a superhero
Ohhhh, ohhhh, oohhh, ohho, huuh, huuuh
Huuuh, huuuh, huuuh, huuuh
Huuuh, huuuh, huuuh, huuuuh
Oh I put on my pants one leg at a time
They fit real nice and stretch when I slide
Not too big on style, nothing special to see
But I've had ′em a while and they suit me
And here′s my sweater that holds my pins
Of all the places I've been to and back again
That name tag on my chest not just a decoration
Shining connection to my curling club kin
My kin ohh uhh ohh uhhh
Years from now when I am dead
Before the granite goes over my head
I′ll be at peace and have no fear
If you lay me down with my curling gear
Put on my pants and sweater and tie my shoes
And curl my fingers around my broom
Hope where I go the gates are pearl there
At least they'll know that I′m a curler
Ohh, ohh
I'm a curler
Ohh, ohh, ohh
I′m a curler
