[Chorus] You're standing by the grey ice water Out in the wind above the ground out in the weather You had yourself a crazy lover Becoming frozen trying hard to forget her
[Verse 1] 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
[Chorus]
[Verse 2] You took the path of least resistance On the phone cutting out talking Short to long distance
At home on a boat, at home, it's a fish trap At home on a boat, it's a fish trap At home on a boat, it's a fish trap
On the arctic blast On the arctic blast On the arctic blast On the arctic blast On the arctic blast On the arctic blast On the arctic blast
