I always had to tell her to relax
And the cat can slip in doors, through multitudes of cracks
And its funny what theyll do, cause cracks lead outside too
When I asked her where shes goin
She said far away from you
Stuck here on my own now, diggin down deep
I dont understand it, but I aint losin sleep
Im not gonna lay down, or head north out of town
I dont know, but I think Ill go
And try dog mushin with an Eskimo
In Alaska, Alaska...I think Ill try Alaska
Somewhere she could wait for me, Ill catch up just wait and see
Idaho, Nebraska...I dont know Ill ask her
I think Ill try...I think Ill try Alaska
Verse 3 & 4:
I sold my old piano for the rent
I loaded up on bug spray and I found my daddys tent
Now Im in high gear, doin forty-five
Im hummin a tune, I wont see the moon
Till sometime in July
I guess I couldve flown or took a train
But you wont see a moose, if youre sittin on a plane
And now theres no more road, but I got a light load
And if she isnt in Alaska
Ill stay and pan for gold
In Alaska, Alaska...I think Ill try Alaska
Somewhere she could wait for me, Ill catch up just wait and see
Idaho, Nebraska...I dont know Ill ask her
I think Ill try...I think Ill try Alaska
Just when I thought Id end up alone
Big ol laskan mama come walkin down the road
(jam 2x over chorus, hold the last G in chorus 4x, don't go to the last C7)
Alaska, Alaska...Ill stay right here in Alaska
All settled down and havin fun, here in the land of the midnight sun
Is it time to call the pastor?...I dont know Ill ask her
Ill stay right here...Ill stay right here (repeat this part 4x)
