North To Alaska - Rose Maddox

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

George turned to Sam with

His gold in his hand

Said 'Sam you'rea 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

Way up north north to Alaska

Way up north north to Alaska

North to Alaska

They' goin' north the rush is on

Way up north north to Alaska

Way up north north to Alaska

North to Alaska

They goin' north the rush is on
