When It‘s Springtime In Alaska (It‘s Forty Below)

　　When It's Springtime In Alaska - Johnny Horton

　　I mushed from Point Barrow through a blizzard of snow

　　Been out prospectin' for two years or so

　　Pulled into Fairbanks the city was a-boom

　　So I took a little stroll to the Red Dog Sea-loon

　　As I walked in the door the music was clear

　　The purtiest voice I had heard in two years

　　The song she was singin' made a man's blood run cold

　　When it's Springtime in Alaska it's forty below

　　When it's Springtime in Alaska it's forty below

　　It was redheaded Lil who was singin' so sweet

　　I reached down and took the snow packs off my feet

　　I reached for the gal who was singin' the tune

　　We did the Eskeemo Hop all around the sea-loon

　　With the Caribou Crawl and a Grizzly Bear Hug

　　We did our dance on a Kodiak rug

　　The song she kept singin' made a man's blood run cold

　　When it's Springtime in Alaska it's forty below

　　I was as innocent as I could be

　　I didn't know Lil was Big Ed's wife-to-be

　　He took out his knife and he gave it a throw

　　When it's Springtime in Alaska I'll be six feet below

　　When it's Springtime in Alaska he'll be six feet below
