And Still I Like Alaska Poem Rhyme Scheme and Analysis
Rhyme Scheme: ABCCBA DEFFEA GHIJKA LMNNMA| I've tramped across her endless miles of tundra | A |
| I've rafted all her rapid flowing streams | B |
| She's kept me on the hummer | C |
| I've fought mosquits in summer | C |
| And siwashed neath Aurora's wintry beams | B |
| And still I like Alaska | A |
| - | |
| I went a winter once on pay streak bacon | D |
| I've gone a year on nothing much but beans | E |
| I've squandered all my time checks | F |
| The kind they give us roughnecks | F |
| And haven't got a dollar in my jeans | E |
| And still I like Alaska | A |
| - | |
| I got a stake one time and wandered Outside | G |
| And I'm telling you I surely put on dog | H |
| But they got in between me and my poke | I |
| They sure did clean me | J |
| And I hit for Dixon's Entrance on the hog | K |
| And still I like Alaska | A |
| - | |
| I don't suppose a man will live to beat it | L |
| Some day we'll quit this land of ice and snow | M |
| And when the Devil gits us | N |
| And finds a place that fits us | N |
| And we're working on the sulphur beds below | M |
| I know I'll like Alaska | A |
