HARPER’S FALL

Heading for the wall,
Heading for the wall,
One step, two step,
Tripped and fell,
Heading for the wall.

Ambling home from the Pub,
Harp and keys in hand,
Down the Back Lane,
Down the black lane,
Not a care in the land.
Tripped against a step,
One step too many,
Launched into space
When I wasn’t ready.

Heading for the wall,
Heading for the wall,
One step, two step,
Tripped and fell,
Heading for the wall.


Ambling back to the Pub,
Harp still in hand,
Up the Back Lane,
Up the black lane,
A bleeding, messy Band.
Ambulance rides and stitches
Till the break of day,
For one step too many,
Head banging all the way.

Heading for the wall,
Heading for the wall,
One step, two step,
Tripped and fell,
Heading for the wall.

The moral of this story,
It is ringing clear,
Don’t stay sober down the Pub,
Keep on drinking beer,
For walls they will attack you
And steps will trip you up,
So, remember when you’re singing,
Have another sup.

Heading for the wall,
Heading for the wall,
One step, two step,
Tripped and fell,
Heading for the wall.
