I go north, the rush is on
With George Pratt, his partner,
They crossed the Yukon River
and found the bonanza gold
Below that old white mountain
Just a little southeast of Nome
They crossed the majestic mountains
He talked to his team of huskies
As they mushed on through the snow
With the northern lights a -runnin' wild
In the land of the midnight sun
Yes, Sam McCord was a mighty man
Where the river is winding,
big nuggets they're finding
North to Alaska, I go north,
North to Alaska, north to Alaska
North to Alaska, I go north,
with his gold in his hand
Said, Sam, you're a -lookin' at a lonely,
that's buried in this land
For one small band of gold
to place on sweet little Jenny's hand
true love is so hard to find
Below that old white mountain,
just a little southeast of Nome
Where the river is winding,
big nuggets they're finding
North to Alaska, I go north,
North to Alaska, north to Alaska
North to Alaska, I go north,
North to Alaska, north to Alaska
North to Alaska, I go north,
