Snow Shoe Thompson
used to carry the mail
Through wind n' thunder, snow and hail
He had no dogs and he had no sled
But one thought drove him straight ahead
Em 
Go  man go, gotta get on through the snow
B 
Mush man mush,
Em 
gotta get on through the slush
Go man go, means mush in Eskimo
C 
B 
So mush man mush man
Em 
G 
mush man go!
When the roads was blocked
and the lines was down
And the birds were a' walkin'
on the ground
And the snow was drifted
tree- top tall
And no one knew who could get
C 
G 
through it all
Em 
Go  man go,
gotta get on through the snow
B 
Mush man mush,
Em 
B 
gotta get on through the slush
Em 
B 
Em 
C 
Go  man go, means mush in Eskimo
B 
Em 
So mush man mush man mush man go!

Verse 2
and the post office crowd said
"Look up yonder!"
and they yelled out loud
Why here comes someone down the trail
It's Snow Shoe Thompson with
C 
the U.S. mail

So remember now when
your days is grim
When the drifts is high and your hopes
is slim

And you don't seem how you're
