Snow Shoe Thompson - Johnny Horton
In 1855 in old California a man was a looking in the paper one day

Uncle Sam needs a postman to carry the mail

Through the High Sierra Mountains over God forsaken trails

Snow Shoe Thompson told 'em he knew he was their man
I'll get through them mountains if anybody can

He took a pair of snowshoes he took a pair of skis
And led out through that mountains
Where the normal man would freeze

He was cautious as a mountain cat fleet as a deer

Tough as a grizzly bear he knew no fear

He lived a life of danger bringin' mountain people the news
Cause Snow Shoe Thompson packed the mail on through

In the High Sierra Mountains it was 32 below

Blue blizzard fairly whistled bringin' 40 feet of snow

No one dared to venture on a slippery mountain trails

But Snow Shoe kept a comin' he was packin' US mail

His face was weather beaten from his many rugged miles

But he knew it was worth it when he'd see the people smile
His deeds are not forgotten they stay in the Hall of Fame
They stay in old Squaw Valley to Snow Shoe Thompson's name
He was cauition as a mountain cat
She kicked up her heels with out a hint

Kicked the lantern over and away she went

The world couldn't help but be amazed
