North To Alaska Lyrics
North to Alaska I go north the rush is on
Big Sam left Seattle in the year of 1902
With George as 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
They crossed the majestic mountain to valleys far below
He talked to his team of huskys as he mushed on through the snow
Well the northern lights are running wild in the land of the midnight sun
Yes Sam McCord was a mighty man in the year of 1901
Where the river is winding big nuggets they're finding
North to Alaska I go north the rush is on
(Way up north) north to Alaska (way up north) north to Alaska
North to Alaska I go north the rush is on
[ guitar ]
George turned to Sam with this gold in his hand
Said Sam you're a looking at a lonely lonely man
I'd trade all the gold that's burried in this land

For one small band of gold to place on sweet little Jeannie's hand
For 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 Jeannie a honeymoon home
Below that old White Mountain just a little southeast of Nome
Where the river is winding...
(Way up north) north to Alaska...
