As long as lure o' placer gold	A
Brings North the best ye breed	B
As long as tales of camps and trails	C
Are planted with your seed	B
As long as red blood courses thru	D
And warms adventure's sons	E
They'll sally forth bound for the North	F
Misfortune's chosen ones	E
	-
As long as snow slides claim their toll	G
And glaciers split and rend	B
And sweepers turn the flimsy craft	B
And trails come to an end	B
As long as flashing Northern Lights	H
Flame in the Arctic sky	I
Your boldest ones your bravest sons	E
Come North to win or die	I
	-
As long as lust of wealth obtains	J
And gold will buy all things	K
And bank accounts but mark the line	L
'Twixt shovel stiffs and kings	K
As long as fancy rides free reined	B
And distant fields seem fair	M
They'll seek the ship and make the trip	N
To the land of Do and Dare	M
	-
As long as birds mate in the spring	O
And moose run in the fall	P
And widows win the college youth	Q
And hold his heart in thrall	P
As long as chance for fortune's smile	R
Can be centered in one throw	S
This is the truth the Nation's youth	Q
Will hear the call and go	S
	-
As long as water runs down hill	T
And smoke goes up from fire	U
As long as pleasure precedes pain	V
And women love for hire	U
As long as Klondike widows	W
Trail thru Outside Caf s	X
Some one must stick on the lonesome creek	Y
For there's ever the him that pays	Z
	-
As long as huskies curse the moon	A2
And creeks remain unnamed	B
As long as quicksands mask the bar	B2
And there's placer ground unclaimed	B
As long as pay is found and staked	B
By some deep sea going Swede	B
That gypsy trace that marks our race	C2
Will out then we stampede	B
