Big sam left seattle in the year of ninety two
With george freddy's 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 north 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 a 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 to 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
Said sam you're a looking at a lonely lonely man
I'd trade all the gold that's buried in this land
One small band to go to place
One sweet look in his hand
'cause a man who 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 north where the river is winding
Big nuggets they're finding
North to alaska we don't know the rush is on
North to alaska to go north the rush is on way up
