Saginaw Michigan |
| 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 brought home 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 |
| Not good enough to claim his daughter’s hand |
| Now I’m up here in Alaska looking around for gold |
| Like a crazy fool I’m digging in this frozen ground so cold |
| With each day I pray I’ll strike it rich and then |
| Go back home and claim my love in Saginaw, Michigan |
| I wrote my love in Saginaw, Michigan |
| Said, «Honey, I’m coming home, please wait for me And you can tell your dad I’m coming home a richer man |
| I hit the biggest strike in Klondike history» |
| Her dad met me in Saginaw, Michigan |
| Gave me a great big party with champagne |
| And he said, «Son, you’re a wise, young, ambitious man |
| Won’t you sell your father-in-law your Klondike claim?» |
| Now he’s up there in Alaska digging in the cold hard ground |
| The greedy fool is looking for the gold I never found |
| It serves him right and no one here is missing him |
| Least of all, the newlyweds of Saginaw, Michigan |
| We’re the happiest man and wife in Saginaw, Michigan |
| He’s ashamed to show his face in Saginaw, Michigan |
