|
I mushed from |
|
Port Barrol through a blizzard of snow |
|
Been out prospecting for two years or so |
|
Pulled into |
|
Fairbanks, the city was a boon |
|
So I took a little stroll to the |
|
Red Dog Saloon |
|
When I walked in the door, the music was clear |
|
Prettiest voice |
|
I had heard in two years |
|
The song she kept singing would make a man's blood run cold |
|
When it's springtime in |
|
Alaska, it's forty below |
|
It was red headed |
|
Luie that was singing so sweet |
|
I reached down and took the snow packs off of my feet |
|
I reached for the gal that was singing the tune |
|
We did the |
|
Eskimo hop all around the saloon |
|
Where the caribou crawl and the grizzly bear hug |
|
We did our dance on a |
|
Kodiak rug |
|
The song she kept singing would make a man's blood run cold |
|
When it's springtime in |
|
Alaska, it's forty below |
|
Well, I was as innocent as |
|
I could be |
|
I didn't know that |
|
Luie was big |
|
Ed's wife to be |
|
He took out his knife and he gave it a throw |
|
When it's springtime in |
|
Alaska, I'll be six feet below |
