about

Inspired by life in Dawson City Yukon Canada.

lyrics

Spring blows in a sweet scent from the north and it accents the sounds of the people digging out of the snow.
And the rain takes the snow away from its shadowed hide-away and I'm left wondering when the river's gonna rise.

The Dawson City Waltz is a three quarter tune.
It shuffles like a fiddle in a musty saloon.
You can dance it in your slippers, your mukluks or Stones.
Just make sure that you're tipsy and that you ain't all alone.

Well I hear that there's fire to the south getting higher and its shut down the only road leading out.
And the sun keeps persisting, all night he's insisting that he's missed us and he's planning on sticking around 'till the fall.

The Dawson City Waltz is a three quarter tune.
It shuffles like a fiddle in a musty saloon.
You can dance it in your slippers, your mukluks or Stones.
Just make sure that you're tipsy and that you ain't all alone.

Well the stores are all closing, and the man, he is hosing down the buses that'll head south for awhile.
