BROKE IN KLONDIKE. 



It's a long way to the Klondike, where the 



air is full of freeze, 

 Where the summer's full of 'skeeters as a 



kitten is of fleas; 

 You're winner if you strike it, but if you 



don't you're stuck, 

 And tough luck in the Klondike is the 



toughest kind of luck. 

 And it's well this to remember, ere you start 



out on the track, 

 That when you're broke in Klondike, why, 

 You can't 



Walk 

 Back.
