***Chorus:
F C
Lost up in no-man's land
In the Northwest Terri-tories
They were lost up in no-man's land
The Marten Hartwell story
The Marten Hartwell story
C
On November the 8th of '72
G7 C
North of the Arctic Circle
C
A plane took off from Cambridge Bay
And the pilot's name was Hartwell
He had to make it to Yellowknife
Al-though the night was stormin'
To save the lives of an Eskimo boy
And a pregnant Eskimo woman.
C
"Oh, Mr. Hartwell," said the nurse
"I pray that you will guide us
C
To save this woman with her child
And the boy with appendi-citis."
But the wind, it blew and the storm, it grew
And the signal of Kan-twoita
They missed by miles and flying wild
They crashed beside Lake Hota.
***Chorus
C
Now Judy Hill, the federal nurse
She never lived to waken
C
And the life of the mother and her child
Were both soon after taken
But the pilot woke to find himself
And the Eskimo boy were livin'
F C
Left in pain be-side the plane
To search the skies of heaven.
C
Day by day the pilot lay
With both his ankles broken
C
And it took the lad everything he had
To keep the fire stokin'
While in the sky too far away
The rescue team were seakin'
A signal wave that might be traced
The Hartwell's radio beacon
**Chorus
C
After nineteen days the aerial search
Was said to be com-pleted
C
Until someone cried, "They're still alive
And the search must be re-peated."
And the day the beep was finally heard
Was the day we'll all re-member
A man was found safe and sound
On the 9th day of De-cember.
C
Hartwell said he should have died
At 35 below zero
C
And the reason Hartwell did survive
The boy had died a hero,
"He brought me food when I couldn't move
While he himself grew feeble
Yes, Davy Koutouk died a saint
And a credit to his people
F C
Davy Koutouk died a saint
And a credit to his people."
***Chorus
