In my younger days I did plenty of singing after climbing. I belonged to a university climbing club, and after a day on the hills we would all go to the pub and sing - folk songs as well as specific climbing songs. These were all group singalongs with everyone joining in the whole song, chorus and verse, but there was no book. Many of the climbing songs I've never seen written down. New club members picked up the songs by singing them.

Sadly, this tradition seems to have died out. The pubs we went in have been modernised and now try to attract a less scruffy and better-behaved clientele (for which I can't really blame them). It's a pity that younger climbers don't know the songs, although I do my best to keep them going when the opportunity arises.
