Ooo, oooo, ooooo, ooooo, oooo, ooo, wah wah wah wahhh

I left a little town a little south of Hudson Bay
B E
I couldn't find a thing to make a rounder want to stay
A D A
I fought the wind across the barren waste and the crystal dunes
E A
Goin' for to marry the girl from Saskatoon
E A
I'm glad I realized that no one could take her place
B E
My heart was beatin' for her like the winter beat my face
A D A
But knowin' that I'd see her made my spirit bright as June
E A
I'm freezin' but I'm burnin' for the girl in Saskatoon

A E A
Ooo, oooo, ooooo, ooooo, oooo, ooo, wah wah wah wahhh
E A
South and west and followin' the cold December sun
B E
I bedded down in the caragana when my daily trek was done
A D A
Then up and pressin' onward by the light of the morning moon
E A
A prodigal returnin' to the girl in Saskatoon

A E A
Ooo, oooo, ooooo, ooooo, oooo, ooo, wah wah wah wahhh
E A
Then I found a trail that had packed beneath the snow
B E
I made the final miles where the prairie lilies grow
A D A
A steeple on a church glistened by the prairie moon
E A
I'm freezin' but I'm burnin' for the girl in Saskatoon
E A
But my journey was forgotten when I held her in my arms
B E
My wonderlust was stifled by possession of her charms
A D A
And kneeling neath the steeple where we couldn't wait till June
E A
I found eternal spring with the girl in Saskatoon
