I took time out to write to my old friend
I walked that mile across a burning bridge
Mailed my letter off to Madison
But my reply came - down from Nome, Alaska.
Hey, Tom you know it's kinda funny
You know, Ariel ran away from home and Stephanie hit the roof

Tom Sleckman and Michelle Shocked.
But you know you're in the coldest state in the Union
When your fingers and toes are "Numb in Nome, Alaska".
All day long I'm hunting walrus tooth.
I've got a brand new igloo chicken-coop.
I think I'm an eskimo; that's right I'm an eskimo.
