Testo Celebrated Skier - Bob Gibson
Testo della canzone Celebrated Skier (Bob Gibson), tratta dall'album In This White World
I'm a celebrated skier, folks, and qualified to smirk
I've skied more hills than any man from Frisco to New York
But talking about the skiing I've done is my one and only quirk
Especially when I'm standing in the bar room
I'll ski any hill that stands, my friends, regardless of the pitch
On any kind of skis at all, I really don't care which
I could ski the cliffs of Dover with nary a bloody hitch
And haven't I often proved it in the bar room
I ski straight down the hill, you know, I never need traverse
I ski every style of skiing from the Arlberg to reverse
I'm one of the finest skiers in the whole darn universe
Especially when I'm standing in the bar room
I've looked for powder skiing all around the world, you know
And when the powder's really deep, I'm first one on the tow
With just my head above the top, that's how I like my snow
And I love to tell about it in the bar room
The search for higher mountains has become my life-long quest
But I've found a hill in Asia that I really think is best
So if anyone wants to find me, I'll be schussing Everest
As soon as I've had a couple in the bar room
Now when it comes to racing, I'm the finest of the crop
I can memorize a slalom course from bottom to the top
I come roaring through the finish gate and I barely make a stop
Just in time to have a couple in the bar room
And now my song has ended and I hope you will agree
That if you need some pointers, why, you'd better send for me
But I'm not worth a damn, you know, 'til I've emptied two or three
Of the very biggest schooners in the bar room
The very biggest schooners in the bar room
