Saginaw Michigan Video (MV)

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)
