Alaska and Me

歌詞

When I was a child and I lived in the city I dreamed of Alaska so far away And I dreamed I was flying over mountains and glasciers Somehow I knew that I'd live there one day Well it took me some growin' and a fair bit of schoolin' And a little bit of trouble to get on the move And I felt like loser but I turned out the winner When I came to Alaska the land that I love Here's to Alaska here's to the people Here's to the wild and heres to the free Here's to my life in a chosen country Here's to Alaska and me I was born in a cabin on little Mulchatna Raised in hard times but I had a good life From the first time I flew with my father a singin' I knew that I'd wind up a bush pilots wife We sleep near the sound of a slow running river And wake up most mornings to a drizzling rain And we face every day like the first or the last one With nothing to lose and heaven to gain Here's to Alaska here's to the people Here's to the wild and heres to the free Here's to my life in a chosen country Here's to Alaska and me Oh for a fire on a cold winters night And once more to gaze at the great Northernlights For all of the beauty my children will see Heres to Alaska and me Here's to Alaska here's to the people Here's to the wild and heres to the free Here's to my life in a chosen country Here's to Alaska and me
