|
Sunday and it's rainin' in Alaska
|
Seven days, I haven't seen the sun
|
Flyin' bush, flyin' low along the shore line
|
Doin' everything I can to make it home
|
I can't wait to see the Wrangle Mountain
|
I can't wait to do what I will do
|
Honey, did I never say how time goes by so slowly
|
When I can't wait to get back home to you
|
|
Three years from the war and settled down now
|
I did my time and served my country well
|
In the freedom I defended I fly beneath the North Star
|
And I just don't know a better way to feel
|
I can't wait to see the Wrangle Mountain
|
I can't wait to do what I will do
|
Honey, did I never say how time goes by so slowly
|
When I can't wait to get back home to you
|
|
It's a quiet life out here among the mountains
|
In a cabin that was built with these two hands
|
McCarthey lies asleep beside the Glacier
|
It's colder now, winter's in the air
|
If you think they're wild it's just because they can't be broken
|
It's a strong and gentle people living there
|
I can't wait to see the Wrangle Mountain
|
I can't wait to do what I will do
|
|
Honey, did I never say how time goes by so slowly
|
When I can'?t wait to get back home to you
