North To Alaska Lyrics - Dwight Yoakam

North to Alaska 

Go 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 the 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 he 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 windin' 

Big nuggets they're findin' 

North to Alaska 

Go north, the rush is on 

Where the river is windin' 

Big nuggets they're findin' 

North to Alaska 

Go north, the rush is on

North to Alaska 

Go north, the rush is on 

George turned to Sam 

With his gold in his hand 

Said, "Sam, you're 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 Jenny's hand 

'Cause a man needs a woman 

To love him all the time 

You know Sam, a true love 

Is so hard to find 

I'd build for my Jenny 

A honeymoon home 

Beneath that old white mountain 

Just a little south of Nome." 

Where the river is windin' 

Big nuggets they're findin' 

North to Alaska 

Go north, the rush is on 

North to Alaska 

Go north, the rush is on 

North to Alaska 

Go north, the rush is on 

Well North to Alaska 

North to Alaska 

Go north, the rush is on 

North to Alaska 

Go north, the rush is on 

Way up North, way up North 

North to Alaska 

Go north, the rush is on 

North to Alaska 

Go north, the rush is on 

Way up North...
