Roy Drusky - When It's Springtime In Alaska lyrics

I mushed from Port Barren through a blizzard of snow

Been out prospecting for two years or so

Pulled into Fairbanks the city was a boon so I took a little stroll to the Red Dog Saloon

As I walked in the door the music was clear

The prettiest voice I had heard in two years

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

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

[ ac.guitar ]

It was red headed Luie who was singin' so sweet

I reached down and took the snowpacks off my feet

I reached for the girl who was singin' the tune

We did the Escimo hop all around the saloon

Where the cariboo crawl and the grizzly bear hug

We did our dance on a Kodiac rug

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

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

[ ac.guitar ]

I was as innocent as I could be I didn't know Luie was big Ed's wife to be

He took out his knife and he gave it a throw

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