I got my snow machine stuck out on that windy Atmautluak trail. When along came a musher, pulled me out and a saved my tail. He said, "If you're going to Atmautluak man, with me you can ride." So I climbed into the sled and I hunkered down inside.
I said, "Have you ever seen a trail with so much ice and snow?" and he said, "Listen, Bud, I've been everywhere in this state there is to go."
He said--
I Been everywhere, man,

I been everywhere!
