A Little Bit South of Saskatoon Lyrics
by Sonny James
#
#Here's a cool little tune that I first heard in the classic hockey movie "Slapshot". I
#included he basic chord structure of the song as well as the full tab with chord
#condensed to one guitar part. I have tried to make timing as obvious as possible; all
#are eighth notes:
#
#A Little Bit South of Saskatoon
#Written by: Sonny James (1975)

Just a little bit south of Saskatoon
Pick my guitar for board and room
Met a little girl, her name was June
A little bit south of Saskatoon
Me and Junny-Mae we got on fine
Till I had to move further down the line
Promised that girl I'd be back soon
A little bit south of Saskatoon
Went up to Nome to see the sights
Had a yen to watch the northern lights
But I had my mind on my sweet June
A little bit south of Saskatoon
So I caught a freight and headed back
Following down that railroad track
Kept a thinkin' of my honeymoon
A little bit south of Saskatoon
Me and Junny-Mae got a little house
Got a piece of ground and a few milk cows
We're gonna get a youngin' soon
A little bit south of Saskatoon
In the winter time when we can't farm
Me and Junny-Mae sit arm in arm
By a big ole fire and honeymoon
A little bit south of Saskatoon
