Sam expresses to the speaker ("Cap") his dread of being interred in a cold cemetery and demands that Cap commit to having his body cremated once he passes away.

In this poem, Service tells the tale of Tennessee native Sam McGee, who perished in the frigid north pole. This is a tale about one's lust and how it can ruin one's life. The title character became so obsessed with riches that he lost sight of the world around him.

He eventually passed away while looking for gold. The poem's narrator discusses Sam's life story and his dying wish to be cremated. He loathed being buried beneath the bitter polar ice. He requested that the speaker cremate him because of this. As a result, the entire poem is written in iambic octameter. There are a few differences in this poem, though.
