Big Sam left Seattle in the year of '92,
F C
With George Pratt, his partner and brother Billy too.
F C
They crossed the Yukon river, and found the bonanza gold,
Beneath that old white mountain,
G C
Just a little south-east of Nome.
G C
Sam crossed the majestic mountains to the valleys far below.
F C
He talked to his team of huskies, as they mushed on through the snow.
F C
With the Northern Lights runnin' wild in the land of the midnight sun,
G C
Yes, Sam McCord was a mighty man in the year of 1901.
And where the river is windin',
F
Big nuggets they're findin'.
C G C
North to Alaska, go north, the rush is on.
'Cause where the river is windin',

Big nuggets they're findin'.

George turned to Sam with his gold in his hand.
G D
Said "Sam, you're lookin' at a lonely, lonely man".
G D
I'd trade all the gold that's buried in this land,
A D
For one small band of gold to place on sweet Jenny's hand.
A D
'Cause a man needs a woman to love him all the time.
G D
You know Sam, a true love is so hard to find.
G D
I'd build for my Jenny a honeymoon home,
Beneath that old white mountain,
A D
Just a little south-east of Nome.
Yeah where the river is windin',
G
Big nuggets they're findin'.
