Yukon - PUP

In the Yukon valley

Where I spent my summer past

I was alone in the bush where

The tide’s slow and the river moves fast

And, oh that golden temptress

That golden witch

We were on the tundra

In a land where the sun don’t set

In the Yukon valley

Where you left me

You left me on my knees

On the Athabasca Delta

We retraced our tracks

All through the woods where we found

A compass and a prospector’s mound

And I pushed off in my boat

With the gold prospector’s ghost

Search forever

But, you won’t ever find your gold

The river swallowed it whole

In the Yukon valley

Where you left me

You left me on my knees

On the great Slave River

To the west

To the west, I’m headed east

In the Yukon valley

To the west

I watched you dyin'

As the temperature was risin'

In the Yukon valley

Where you left me

You left me on my knees

On the great Slave River

To the west

To the west, but I’m headed east

In the Yukon valley

To the west

To the west

But I’m headed east
