Alaska - Cactus, Gene Paul

Goin' to Alaska where the water runs like glass

The home of the penguin, the walrus and Aurora Borealas, oh yes

See my baby’s heart is frozen she just don’t treat me nice

I’m gonna search out Santa Clause and ask his advice

When I get up to Alaska maybe someone there’ll treat me right

I will build me an igloo live alone in my dome of blues

Buy me a low-mileage dogsled and some alligator snow shoes

I hear six months a year you get night time all day

I had to practice my harp to keep the polar bears away

Way up in Alaska where the whales and the eskimos play

If I got sun I’d be better, man I’d be warm right now, right now

But my soul’s condemned to shivers 'cause she thinks I’ve been running around

So I sit here cryin' tears freeze to my face

If it gets any colder, I’ll be frozen in place

In rock hard Alaska, you’re gonna be my home

Way up to Alaska where the ground here is solid ice

Way up here in Alaska you know the ground here is solid ice

Had to leave my woman 'cause her heart is so cold

When I get back from the north pole I’ll defrost her soul

Way up in Alaska maybe some day I’ll treat you right
