MAN IT’S COLD UP HERE
The wind it blows
The cold is cold
The wild prairie rose is froze
Up in the north
Against 49
Escaping ain’t a choice
Indians had it
Whites took it
They don’t neither know what to do
Too cold part time
Too hot part time
Ain’t no time just right
But danged if it don’t
Danged if it do
Give a sense of wheren’t you are
North of South
South of the North
Dakota, North Dakota. It’s you.
