Way up north, my love lies sleepin 
Way up north, my love lies sleepin 
Her lonely grave, beneath the pines 
Her lonely grave, beneath the pines 
How sadly I recall her memory 
How sadly I recall her memory 
She was my own true love devine 
She was my own true love devine 
 
One night I found her with another 
One night I found her with another 
They did not know I was around 
They did not know I was around 
In a blinded rage I drew my pistol 
In a blinded rage I drew my pistol 
I killed them both and fled that town 
I killed them both and fled that town 
 
For many days I wandered over 
For many days I wandered over 
Across the sea and desert sands 
Across the sea and desert sands 
My heart filled with grief and sadness 
My heart filled with grief and sadness 
I could not clense these, my blooded hands 
I could not clense these, my blooded hands 
 
For many years Ive been a prisoner 
For many years Ive been a prisoner 
My grayin hair marks off the time 
My grayin hair marks off the time 
Im going back to my old north-lands 
Im going back to my old north-lands 
To wash away my sin and pride x2 
To wash away my sin and pride x2
