Ballad Of Basphemous Bill

I took a contract to bury the body of blasphemous Bill MacKie Whenever wherever or whatsoever the manner of death he die Whether he die in the light o' day or under the peak-faced moon In cabin or dance-hall camp or dive mucklucks or patent shoon On velvet tundra or virgin peak by glacier drift or draw In muskeg hollow or canyon gloom by avalanche fang or claw By battle murder or sudden wealth by pestilence hooch or lead I swore on the Book I would follow and look till I found my tombless dead For Bill was a dainty kind of cuss and his mind was mighty sot On a dinky patch with flowers and grass in a civilized boneyard lot And where he died or how he died it didn't matter a damn So long as he had a grave with frills and a tombstone epigram So I promised him and he paid the price in good cheechako coin Which the same I blowed in that very night down in the Tenderloin Then I painted a three-foot slab of pine here lies poor Bill MacKie And I hung it up on my cabin wall and waited for Bill to die Years passed away and at last one day came a squaw with a story strange Of a long-deserted line of traps way back of the Bighorn range Of a little hut by the great divide and a white man stiff and still Lying there by his lonesome self and I figured it must be Bill So I thought of the contract I'd made with him and I took down from the shelf The swell black box with the silver plate he'd picked out for hisself And I packed it full of grub and hooch and I slung it on the sleigh Then I harnessed up my team of dogs and was off at dawn of day You know what it's like in the Yukon wild when it's sixty-nine below When the ice-worms wriggle their purple heads through the crust of the pale blue snow When the pine trees crack like little guns in the silence of the wood And the icicles hang down like tusks under the parka hood When the stove-pipe smoke breaks sudden off and the sky is weirdly lit And the careless feel of a bit of steel burns like a red-hot spit When the mercury is a frozen ball and the frost-fiend stalks to kill Well it was just like that that day when I set out to look for Bill Oh the awful hush that seemed to crush me down on every hand As I blundered blind with a trail to find through that blank and bitter land Half dazed half crazed in the winter wild with its grim heartbraking woes And the ruthless strife for a grip on life that only the sourdough knows North by the compass North I pressed river and peak and plain Passed like a dream I slept to lose and I waked to dream again
