intro:
way up north (north to alaska)
way up north (north to alaska)

north to alaska
you go north, the rush is on
north to alaska
i go north, the rush is on

big sam left seattle in the year of ninety-two
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 (mush)
to the valleys far below (mush)
he talked to his team of huskies (mush)
as he mushed on through the snow (mush)
with the northern lights a-runnin’ wild (mush)
in the land of the midnight sun (mush)
yes, sam mccord was a mighty man (mush)
in the year of nineteen-one (mush)

where the river is windin’
big nuggets they’re findin’
north to alaska
they go north, the rush is on

a-way up north (north to alaska)
way up north (north to alaska)
north to alaska
they go north, the rush is on
north to alaska
they go north the rush is on

george turned to sam
wth 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

’cause 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 windin’
big nuggets they’re findin’
north to alaska
they go north, the rush is on
north to alaska
they go north, the rush is on

way up north (north to alaska)
way up north (north to alaska)
fades-
way up north (north to alaska)
way up north (north to alaska)
way up north.

~
