Kilimanjaro Song

So I mentioned before that we spent some time in the mess tent one night trying to come up with a song to sing for all of the staff. I just found our attempt at lyrics (late at night, at altitude...) Enjoy!

KILIMANJARO 
To the tune of the Beach Boys' Kokomo 

Arusha, Lemosho, ooo I'm gonna take you
Forest camp, then Moir, come on let's get higher!
to Lava, then Arrow, baby why don't we go
.....

Across the Western Breach
All the way to Crater Camp
So close, we'll see the top, and then we'll make it there!
One step at a time
Tropical fruit at lunch time
We'll be climbing up
Porters giving us a helping hand
On Kilimanjaro

Arusha, Lemosho, ooo I'm gonna take you
Forest camp, then Moir, come on let's get higher!
to Lava, then Arrow, baby why don't we go

Ooo I wanna take you up Kilimanjaro
We'll get there fast
And then we'll take it slow-
Polé polé is how we wanna go
Up Kilimanjaro 

At this point our creativity ran out on us and we decided to go to sleep.  Feel free to finish the song up and let me know what you come up with!
