Thread Name: Lyr Req: Matterhorn (Fred B. Burch & Mel Tillis)
Subject: Origins: ...and lyric request: Matterhorn

I just heard a song by The Country Gentlemen called, according to the DJ, "Matterhorn." It's the story of a party who die climbing the mountain.

Anyone know the lyrics? I didn't find it in DT with a search by "Matterhorn." And is this the story of an actual climb?
