Dr. Dog - Alaska lyrics

Well, how're the mountains off the harbor?
And how far are you from shore?
And when your ship
Oh, when your ship comes into port
Would you call? Oh, would you call?

In that cabin in Montana
Was that donkey gettin' drunk?
Well it's been hell back
Here in Philadelphia, yeah
And York ain't what it was

Now you know grandpa's washing dishes
He does it when he can
Trying to get this fire started
And I could really use a hand
The dog is barking out back
He thinks he's in the band
Trying to get this fire started
And I could really use a hand

And I dreamt where we're at the station
And you asked me if you could go
You know I never really had the chance
To say no

Well it's night time in Alaska
I hear it's dark until the spring
Well it's been hell back
Here in Philadelphia, yeah
And York ain't what it was

Now you know grandpa's washing dishes
He does it when he can
Trying to get this fire started
And I could really use a hand
The dog is barking out back
He thinks he's in the band
Trying to get this fire started
And I could really use a hand

Well I dream where we're at the station
And you asked me if you could go
You know I never really had the chance
Oh, no to say
