[...]
It was redhead Lil who was singin' so sweet.
I reached down and took the snow packs off my feet.
[...]
The song she kept singin' made a man's blood run cold.
When it's springtime in Alaska it's forty below.
I was as innocent as I could be.
I didn't know Lil was big Ed's wife-to-be.
He took out his knife and he gave it a throw.
When it's springtime in Alaska I'll be six feet below.
