Way up north North to Alaska
North to Alaska
We go north the rush is on
North to Alaska
We go 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 ol' 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 NineteenOne
Where the river is winding
Big nuggets they're findin'
North to Alaska
We go north the rush is on
North to Alaska north to Alaska
North to Alaska
We go north the rush is on
North to Alaska
We go north the rush is on
George turned to Sam
With his gold in his hand
He said Sam you're a-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 Jennie'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 Jenny
A honeymoon home
Below that ol' white mountain
Just a little southeast of Nome
Where the river is winding
Big nuggets they're findin'
North to Alaska
We go north the rush is on
North to Alaska
We go north the rush is on
