peter stampfel - when it's springtime in alaska (it's forty below) lyrics

when it’s springtime in alaska, it’s 40 below

i mushed from point barrow through blizzard of snow
been out prospectin’ for two years or so
i pulled into fairbanks, the city was a+boom
so i took a little stroll to the red dog saloon

as i walked in there the music was clear
the purtiest voice i had heard in two years
the song she was singin’ made my blood run cold
when it’s springtime in alaska, it’s 40 below
(when it’s springtime in alaska, it’s 40 below)
it was redhead lil’ who was singin’ so sweet
i reached down and took them snow shoes off my feet
i grabbed for that gal who was singin’ the tune
we did the eskeemo hop all around the saloon

with a caribou crawl and a grizzly bear’s hug
we did our dance on a kodiak rug
the song she kept singin’ made a man’s blood run cold
when it’s springtime in alaska, it’s 40 below
when it’s springtime in alaska, it’s 40 below

i was as innocent as i could be
i didn’t know lil’ was big ed’s wife+to+be
he reached for his knife and he gave it a throw
when it’s springtime in alaska, i’ll be six feet below
(when it’s springtime in alaska, he’ll be six feet below)
