| That's What I Like About the North (c) 1982 Tupelo Kenyon (P) 1982 Arctic Wingsong Publishing BMI We've got sun in the summer, and some in the winter And fun most all the time But we've got time in the winter for the things of the summer That didn't get done on time Cause we're busy in the summer, we gotta get out, you won't find us inside There's beaches to walk where the sea gulls are squawking', and flyin' at high tide There's lakes and rivers everywhere that need to be canoed There's berries to pick and rivers to fish, and that's abundant food There's time to do what you need to do, and somehow there's still more Cause the sun's still up and the days are long, and that's what I like about the north We've got sun in the summer, and some in the winter And fun most all the time But we've got time in the winter for the things of the summer That didn't get done on time We're busy in the winter, we gotta get out, we got it all planned When the rivers all freeze, we'll slip on our skis, it's a winter wonderland There are books to read and minds to feed, it's nice to be inside On a snowy night with the northern lights, we hibernate and hide There's time to do what you wanna do, but no time to get bored When the nights are long, you gotta get along, and that's what I like about the north We've got sun in the summer, and some in the winter And fun most all the time But we've got time in the winter for the things of the summer That didn't get done on time We're busy in Alaska, we gotta be, that's the way we choose We learn to be a winner here, cause it's too cold to lose The people make it special here, they think, "I think I can" And if you can't, you can find some help, cause your neighbor gives a damn There's time to learn what you wanna learn, all you gotta do is ask Cause the people here are as good as gold, and that's what I like about Alas . . . ka ___________________________________________________ Riversong Studio, PO Box 25, Story WY, 82842, (307) 683-3451 http://www.SomeMusicMatters.com Tupelo@SomeMusicMatters.com Click Here to Download Lyrics and Chord Chart for this song (.pdf file).
