Way up north, (North To Alaska.) | |
Way up north, (North To Alaska.) | |
North to Alaska, | |
They're goin' North, the rush is on. | |
North to Alaska, | |
They're goin' North, the rush is on. | |
Big Sam left Seattle in the year of '92, | |
With George Pratt, his partner, and brother, Billy, too. | |
They crossed the Yukon River and found the bonanza gold. | |
Below that old white mountain just a little south-east of Nome. | |
Sam crossed the majestic mountains to the valleys far below. | |
He talked to his team of huskies as he mushed on through the snow. | |
With the northern lights a-running wild in the land of the midnight sun, | |
Yes, Sam McCord was a mighty man in the year of nineteen-one. | |
Where the river is winding,Big nuggets they're finding. | |
North to Alaska, | |
They're goin' North, the rush is on. | |
Way up north, (North To Alaska.) | |
Way up north, (North To Alaska.) | |
North to Alaska, | |
They're goin' North, the rush is on. | |
North to Alaska, | |
They're goin' North, the rush is on. | |
George turned to Sam with his gold in his hand, | |
Said: "Sam you're a-lookin'at a lonely, lonely man. | |
"I'd trade all the gold that's buried in this land, | |
"For one small band of gold to place on sweet little Ginnie's hand. | |
"'Cos a man needs a woman to love him all the time. | |
"Remember, Sam, a true love is so hard to find. | |
"I'd build for my Ginnie, a honeymoon home. | |
"Below that old white mountain just a little south-east of Nome." | |
Where the river is winding,Big nuggets they're finding. | |
North to Alaska, | |
They're goin' North, the rush is on. | |
North to Alaska, | |
They're goin' North, the rush is on. | |
Way up north, (North To Alaska.)…… |
Way up north, North To Alaska. | |
Way up north, North To Alaska. | |
North to Alaska, | |
They' re goin' North, the rush is on. | |
North to Alaska, | |
They' re goin' North, the rush is on. | |
Big Sam left Seattle in the year of ' 92, | |
With George Pratt, his partner, and brother, Billy, too. | |
They crossed the Yukon River and found the bonanza gold. | |
Below that old white mountain just a little southeast of Nome. | |
Sam crossed the majestic mountains to the valleys far below. | |
He talked to his team of huskies as he mushed on through the snow. | |
With the northern lights arunning wild in the land of the midnight sun, | |
Yes, Sam McCord was a mighty man in the year of nineteenone. | |
