LITTLE BIT SOUTH OF SASKATOON, A
(Sonny James / Carol Smith)


Sonny James - 1975





Just a little bit south o' Saskatoon
Pick my guitar for board and room
Met a little girl, her name was June
A little bit south of Saskatoon

Me and Juney-May, we got on fine
Till I had to move on up the line
Promised that girl I'd be back soon
A little bit south of Saskatoon

(Instrumental Break)

Went up to Nome to see the sights
Had a yen to watch the Northern Lights
But I had my mind on my sweet June
A little bit south of Saskatoon

So I caught a freight and headed back
Travellin' down that railroad track
Kept'a thinkin' of my honeymoon
A little bit south of Saskatoon

Me and Juney-May got a little house
Got a piece o' ground and a few milk cows
We're gonna get a young'un soon
A little bit south of Saskatoon

In the Wintertime when we caint farn
Me and Juney-May sit arm-in-arm
By a big ol' fire and honey moon
A little bit south of Saskatoon
