You're standing by the grey ice water
Out in the wind above ground out in the weather
You had yourself a crazy lover
Becoming frozen trying hard to forget her

You got a job up in alaska
It's easy to save what the cannery pays
Cause there ain't no way to spend it

You're standing by the grey ice water
Out in the wind above ground out in the weather
You had yourself a crazy lover
Becoming frozen trying hard to forget her

You took the path of least resistance
On the phone cutting out talking
Short to long distance

At home on a boat, it's a fish trap
On the arctic blast
