(Way up north, north to Alaska)
(Way up north, north to Alaska)

North to Alaska
Go north, the rush is on
North to Alaska
We're 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 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 them 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
We're goin north, the rush is on

(Way up north, north to Alaska)
(Way up north, north to Alaska)

North to Alaska
We're goin north, the rush is on
North to Alaska
We're 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
To place on sweet
Little Jenny'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 old white mountain
Just a little southeast of Nome

Where the river is winding
Big nuggets, they're finding
North to Alaska
We're goin north, the rush is on

North to Alaska
We're goin north, the rush is on

(Way up north, north to Alaska)
(Way up north, north to Alaska)
(Way up north, north to Alaska)
(Way up north, north to Alaska)
