We'll freeze, if we don't race
Woman cries out, she slows our pace
Sure you're getting thirsty, you bear a heavy load
Need a little water, fill your mouth with snow
We watched her stumbling, her swollen belly trembling, there's no denying that it's time
Listen woman, the men will leave you out here, you know you can't be left behind
The pace, is set by the men
The mystery of birth, they don't understand
See it in their eyes, heads hanging low
She screams, mouth full of snow
She delivered, started bleeding, tried to stop it with some snow
Couldn't save her, she stopped breathing, what's a simple man to know
The baby's cry gives the men a fright
An odd sound on a silent frozen night
Mercy isn't easy, the men already know
The best thing for that baby now, is a mouth full of snow
Little bundle, barely breathing, you don't deserve this cold
Precious spirit, quickly fleeting, we covered it with snow
So we roll, mouth full of snow
We move on, mouth full of snow
Steaming, steaming, steaming
The pace is set by the men
