Lyrics Alaska (Live, 11/3/2017) - Trey Anastasio

I always had to tell her to relax
And the cat can slip in doors
Through a multitude of cracks
And its funny what they′ll do
Cause cracks lead outside too
When I asked her where she's goin′
She said far away from you

Stuck here on my own now
Diggin down deep
I don't understand it
But I'm not losin sleep
I′m gonna lay down
Or head north out of town
I don′t know
But I think I'll go
And try dog mushin with an eskimo

In Alaska
Alaska
I guess ill try Alaska
Somewhere she might wait for me
I′ll catch up just wait and see
Idaho nebraska
I don't know I′ll ask here
Guess ill try
Think ill try Alaska

Sold my old piano for the rent
I loaded up on bugspray and I found my daddys tent
Now I'm in high gear
Doin′ 45
Hummin a tune
I won't see the moon
Till sometime in July

I guess I couldve flown or took a train
But you won't see a moose
If you′re sittin′ on a train
And now there's no more road
But I got a light load
And if she isn′t in Alaska
Ill stay and pan for gold

Alaska
Alaska
I guess ill try Alaska
Somewhere she might wait for me
Ill catch up just wait and see
Idaho nebraska
I don't know Alaska
I guess ill try
I think ill try Alaska

Just when I thought id end up alone
Big ol-laskan mama come walkin′ down the road
(Jam)

Alaska Alaska
Ill 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 ill ask her
Ill stay right here
Stay right here
Ill stay right here
Stay right here
(Take it cactus)
