Lyrics to Saginaw Michigan
Saginaw Michigan Video:
I was born in Saginaw Michigan I grew up in a house on Saginaw bay My dad was a poor hard working Saginaw fisherman Too many times he came home with too little pay I loved a girl in Saginaw Michigan the daughter of a wealthy wealthy man But he called me that son of a Saginaw fisherman And said I wasn't good enough for his daughter's hand That's why I went up to Alaska searchin' around for gold Like a crazy fool I was diggin' in the frozen ground so cold But with each new day I pray I'd strike it rich and then I'll go back home and claim my love in Saginaw Michigan I wrote my love in Saginaw Michigan I said honey I'm comin' home please wait for me And you can tell your dad I'm coming back a richer man I've hit the biggest strike in Klondyke history So her dad met me in Saginaw Michigan He gave me a great big party and we served champagne Then he said son now you're a wise young ambitious man Now won't you sell your father-in-law your Klondyke claim So now he's up there in Alaska diggin' in the cold cold ground Why the greedy fool is lookin' for the gold I never found It serves him right and no one here is a missin' him Least of all the newly weds of Saginaw Michigan Least of all us newly weds of Saginaw Michigan (Saginaw Michigan)
