Stompin' Tom Connors - Long Gone to the Yukon lyrics

rate me

I'm long gone to the Yukon boys

Cause the Yukon's calling for me

Well brother I just got your note this mornin'

And ya tell me that you've found a little gold

And before another day is done

On that long northern train I'm gonna roll

I can see a little cabin by the mountains

I'll soon be there to share the gold with you

Cause I want to live a life like Robert Service

Old Sam McGee and Dangerous Dan McGrew

Cause I'm long gone to the Yukon

Those northern lights I want to see

I'm long, long gone to the Yukon boys

Cause the Yukon's calling for me

Yeah the Yukon's calling for me

Where the wind along the river will be music

And the midnight sun is aways riding low

I'll paddle my canoe along the Klondike

I'll pan the gold and be a sour dough

And when I pull into Dawson City, Yukon

I'll be heading for the Diamond Lil Saloon

I'll gamble to a honky tonk piano

And I'll chase the dancin' girls around the room

Cause I'm long gone to the Yukon

Those northern lights I want to see

I'm long, long gone to the Yukon boys

Cause the Yukon's calling for me

Yeah the Yukon's calling for me

Well they say once you've heard those mystic voices

On the silence of the north you can't return

Now I hear that lonsome timber wolf a callin'

By the fire where I watched the banic burn

Now it won't be long before I'm Pickin' nuggets

My brother says they're lyin' everywhere

My boss is gonna want to be my butler

Cause when I come back I'll be a millionaire

I'm long gone to the Yukon

Those northern lights I want to see

I'm long, long gone to the Yukon boys

Cause the Yukon's calling for me

Yeah the Yukon's calling for me

The Yukon's calling for me

The Yukon's calling for me

The Yukon's calling for me

The Yukon's calling for me
