[00:00.00]When It's Springtie Im Alaska (It's Forty Below) - Johnny Horton
[00:13.50]I mushed from port barren through a blizzard of snow
[00:19.42]Been out prospecting for two years or so
[00:24.99]Pulled into fairbanks the city was a boon
[00:30.10]So I took a little stroll to the red dog saloon
[00:37.26]As I walked in the door the music was clear
[00:42.83]The prettiest voice I had heard in two years
[00:48.60]The song she was singing made a man's blood run cold
[00:54.11]When it's springtime in alaska it's forty below
[00:59.46]When it's springtime in alaska it's forty below
[01:06.88]It was red headed lily who was singing so sweet
[01:12.33]I reached down and took the snow-packs off my feet
[01:17.99]I reached for the gal who was singing the tune
[01:23.48]We did the eskimo hop all around the saloon
[01:31.98]Where the caribou crawl and the grizzly bear hug
[01:37.54]We did our dance on a kodiak rug
[01:42.98]The song she kept singing made a man's blood run cold
[01:48.47]When it's springtime in alaska it's forty below
[02:02.73]I was as innocent as I could be
[02:07.99]I didn't know lily was big ed's wife to be
[02:13.46]He took out his knife and he gave it a throw
[02:18.81]When it's springtime in alaska I'll be six feet below
[02:24.22]When it's springtime in alaska he'll be six feet below
