I left a little town, a little South of Hudson Bay I couldn't find a thing to make a rounder want to stay I fought the wind across the barren waste an' the crystal dooms Going for to marry the girl in Saskatoon South and West and following the cold December sun I bedded down in the Carragana when my daily trek was done Then up and moving onward by the light of the morning moon I'm freezing but I'm burning for the girl in Saskatoon Then I found the trail that had packed beneath the snow I made the final miles where the prairie lilies grow I walked into a boarding house and I got myself a room Then I started asking about the girl in Saskatoon Well they told me that she'd waited but then she'd gone away To look for me in a little town, a little South of Hudson Bay My wonder lust was over, it went like the morning moon Left me freezing but burning for the girl in Saskatoon
