Mush - Intellectual

[Chorus]

Mush!

Mush on you malamute, half dog half wolf

Lope on through the night

Mush!

Some night we're bound to find her

Then on a golden sleigh forever we'll ride

[Verse 1]

You wonder why I ride a sleigh in the land of ice and snow

Why I run the mail on the Dawson Trail when it's forty-five below

It's all because of a burning love that's buried deep inside

I lost my mate in a howling storm, and searched both far and wide

I know she's here in the land of snow, she never really died

Shе's off out there and loves mе still and hears me when I cry

[Chorus]

Mush!

Mush on you malamute, half dog half wolf

Lope on through the night

Mush!

Some night we're bound to find her

Then on a golden sleigh forever we'll ride

[Verse 2]

I see her eyes in the midnight sky, she's smiling down on me

They sparkle still and always will just like they used to be

When the northern lights paint up the sky, I almost call her name

I see her hair in a brilliant spray, it's fiery like a flame

As I ride on in the icy wind and the malamutes lope on

My whip it sounds like pistol shots 'til the sleigh dogs hear my song

[Chorus]

Mush!

Mush on you malamute, half dog half wolf

Lope on through the night

Mush!

Some night we're bound to find her

Then on a golden sleigh forever we'll ride

[Verse 3]

It's not the cold in the black of night that keeps on worrying me

Nor the howling winds that howls and blows 'til I can hardly see

Nor the lonely cry of a timber wolf that seems to fill the sky

It's what some folks might do with me when my time comes to die

When you know for sure I'm about asleep, lay me in my sleigh

Crack the whip to the malamutes and I'll be on my way singing

[Chorus]

Mush!

Mush on you malamute, half dog half wolf

Lope on through the night

Mush!

Some night we're bound to find her

Then on a golden sleigh forever we'll ride
