The Restless One
Written and recorded by Hank Snow
G C G D7 G
This old train is speeding southbound and her whistle moans the blues
C G D7 G
And my heart's as cold as the ice and snow that fills these walking shoes
C G
That old smoke stack keeps barking back to me and seems to say
D7 G
We'll carry you on oh Restless One
C G D7 G
I had mushed my way on a husky sleigh to the land of midnight sun
C G D7 G
And I kissed the squaw at the wigwam door many times I faced a gun
C G
Brown Eskimo didn't want me to go when I told her I must run
D7 G
And she gave me the name of the Restless One
C G D7 G
Then I strolled into a tavern in that frozen land afar
C G D7 G
Where I met a beautiful Indian maid she was known as the Morning Star
C G
Her eyes were bright like the Northern Lights when they chase the Arctic moon
D7 G
And I knew she was born for the Restless One
C G D7 G
As we danced I gently kissed her in the path of the morning sun
C G D7 G
Love was sweet and oh so blissful with a romance just begun
C G
The restless one had gone and fell in love with the Yukon Queen
D7 G
And she fell in love with the Restless One
C G D7 G
Through the door came an angry red-skin on his head was a beaded band
C G D7 G
I was courting the wife of an Indian chief who ruled with an iron hand
C G
With a knife he run but I pulled my gun and I shot him to the floor
D7 G
Then the hunt began for the Restless One
C G D7 G
Many days and nights they trailed me out under the northern sky
C G D7 G
Where the wild birds song was mournful and the timber wolf did cry
C G
But they tracked me down and I'm Frisco bound I've made my final run
D7 G
It's the end of the line for the Restless One
D7 G
It's the end of the line for the Restless One
