Lyrics

Oh, I wish I were a real Alaskan girl
I wish that I could hold my beer
I could wear hip waders in summer
And heels at ten below
I'd have sexy wooly legs
with long and flowing frozen hair

Oh, to be a scowgirl in the last frontier
Where chicks run the Iditarod and win it
Oh, I could wrench on my own goose
And I'd jerk my own moose
And I'd drive a huge domestic truck
And actually haul stuff in it!

A little less sugar, a little more spice
A whole lotta fire and even more ice
From Kotzebue to Ketchikan,
From Dead Horse to Attu,
Alaskan chicks can teach a city girl like me a thing or two...

Written, recorded, and produced by Marian Call Marian Call, vocals Patric D'Eimon, guitar

My husband and I drive up north to Fairbanks every October to watch the leaves changing across the state. We booked a yurt at Chena Hot Springs, our destination, just so we could say we stayed in a yurt. Unfortunately, a new clerk at the hotel had done our booking for us, and she was not supposed to let anyone have the yurt after September 1st -- because it had no fireplace and no other source of heat. It was ten degrees that night, and my husband and I braved the cold as we listened to the wolves howling outside. The next day, sore, exhausted, and freezing, I decided that I will always be a city girl, and I wrote this song.
