[chorus]
ah, for just one time
i would take the northwest p-ssage
to find the hand of franklin
reaching for the beaufort sea
tracing one warm line
through a land so wild and savage
and make a northwest p-ssage to the sea

[verse 1]
westward from the davis strait
’tis there ’twas said to lie
the sea route to the orient
for which so many died
seeking gold and glory
leaving weathered, broken bones
and a long-forgotten lonely cairn of stones

[chorus]
ah, for just one time
i would take the northwest p-ssage
to find the hand of franklin
reaching for the beaufort sea
tracing one warm line
through a land so wild and savage
and make a northwest p-ssage to the sea

[verse 2]
three centuries thereafter
i take p-ssage overland
in the footsteps of brave kelso
where his “sea of flowers” began
watching cities rise before me
then behind me sink again
this tardiest explorer
driving hard across the plain

[chorus]
ah, for just one time
i would take the northwest p-ssage
to find the hand of franklin
reaching for the beaufort sea
tracing one warm line
through a land so wild and savage
and make a northwest p-ssage to the sea

[verse 3]
and through the night, behind the wheel
the mileage clicking west
i think upon mackenzie
david thompson and the rest
who cracked the mountain ramparts
and did show a path for me
to race the roaring fraser to the sea

[chorus]
ah, for just one time
i would take the northwest p-ssage
to find the hand of franklin
reaching for the beaufort sea
tracing one warm line
through a land so wild and savage
and make a northwest p-ssage to the sea

[verse 4]
how then am i so different
from the first men through this way?
like them, i left a settled life
i threw it all away
to seek a northwest p-ssage
at the call of many men
to find there but the road back home again

[chorus]
ah, for just one time
i would take the northwest p-ssage
to find the hand of franklin
reaching for the beaufort sea
tracing one warm line
through a land so wild and savage
and make a northwest p-ssage to the sea
