ZIG ZAG LINE

Ralph McTell

Me and my son, a hill we climbed
So steep we took a zig zag line
And it was such a long, long, long and a happy climb
That zig zag line.
Sometimes when I'd feel him slip
He would just increase his grip 
A bit on my hand.

Me and my son, on top of a hill
Breathing hard in the air so still
It was such a long, long, long and and a happy climb
That zig zag line.
He looked at me and I looked at him
Both of us began to grin
You know we laughed out loud.

We gathered stones and built a ring
Big enough to dance around in
And it was such a long, long, long and a happy climb
That zig zag line.
Him and me oh, way up high
Building circles in the sky
And a ?????? song.

Me and my son, on top of a hill
Laughing out loud, in the air so still
And we had had such a long, long, and a happy time
That zig zag line.
Time to go, and we both grinned
He took my hand and he knew me
And you know I knew him.
Time to go, and we both grinned
He took my hand and he knew me
And you know I knew him.
