Big Sam left Seattle in the year of ninety two With George Pratt, his partner, and brother Billy too They crossed the Yukon river and found the bonanza gold below that old white mountain just a little southeast of Nome
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 the Northern lights a running wild in the land of the midnight sun Yes, Sam McCord was a mighty man in the year of ninety one
Where the river is winding big nuggets they're finding North to Alaska, we're going north, the rush is on

George turned to Sam with his gold in his hand Said, Sam, you are looking at a lonely, lonely man I'd trade all the gold that's buried in this land for the one small band of gold to place on sweet little Jenny's hand
'cause a man needs a woman to love him all the time Remember, Sam, a true love is so hard to find I'd build for my Jenny a honeymoon home below that old white mountain just a little Southeast of Nome
Where the river is winding big nuggets they're finding North to Alaska, we're going north, the rush is on North to Alaska, we're going north, the rush is on
