North to Alaska - Johnny Horton

Way up north to Alaska way up north to Alaska

North to Alaska goin' north the rush is on

North to Alaska goin' 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 a bonanza gold

Below that old white mountain just a little southeast of nome

Sam crossed the majestic mountains to the valleys far below

He talked to his team of huskies as they mushed on through the snow

With the northern lights a-runnin' 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 goin' north the rush is on

Way up north to Alaska way up north to Alaska

North to Alaska goin' north the rush is on

North to Alaska goin' north the rush is on

George turned to Sam with his gold in his hand

Said Sam you're a looking at a lonely lonely man

I'd trade all the gold that's buried in this land

For one small band of gold placed on sweet little jeannie'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 jeannie a honeymoon home

Below that old white mountain just a little southeast of nome

Where the river is winding big nuggets they're finding

North to Alaska goin' north the rush is on

North to Alaska goin' north the rush is on
