Alaska Lyrics

Phish Alaska

I always had to tell her to relax
And a cat can slip indoors through multitudes of cracks
And it's funny what they'll do cause cracks lead
outside too
When I asked her where she's going she said, far away
from you

Stuck here on my own now, diggin' down deep
I don't understand it but I ain't losing sleep
I'm not gonna lay down, I'll head north out of town
I don't know but I think I'll go, a track dog mushin'
with an Eskimo

In Alaska, Alaska, I think I'll try Alaska, somewhere
she might wait for me I'll catch up just wait and see
Idaho, Nebraska I don't know "I'll aska", Think I'll
try I guess I'll try Alaska...

I sold my old piano for the rent
I loaded up on bug spray and I found my daddy's tent
And now I'm in high gear, doin' 45
Hummin' a tune, I won't see the sun till sometime in
July.

I guess I coulda flown or took a train, but you won't
see a moose when you're sittin' on a plane.
And now there's no more road, but I got a light load
and if she isn't in Alaska I'll stay and pan for gold.

In Alaska, Alaska I think I'll try Alaska somewhere she
might wait for me I'll catch up just wait and see...

Idaho, Nebraska, I don't know "I'll aska" I think I'll
try, I guess I'll try Alaska.

Just when I thought I'd end up alone, Big ol' Alaskan
mama come walkin' down the road

Alaska, Alaska I'll stay right here in Alaska all
settled down and havin fun here in the land of the
midnight sun

Is it time to call the Pastor, I don't know "I'll aska"
I'll stay right here, I'll stay right here... I'll say
tight here, I'll stay right here...
