Saginaw Michigan - Lefty Frizzell
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 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 a digging
In this frozen ground so cold

But with each new day
I pray I'll 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 a coming 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 "

Her dad met me in Saginaw Michigan

He gave me a great
Big party with champagne

Then he said: "Son you're wise
Young ambitious man

"Will you sell your father-in-law
Your Klondyke claim "

Now he's up there in Alaska

Digging in the cold cold ground

The greedy fool is a looking
For the gold I never found

It serves him right
And no-one here is missing him

Least of all the newly-weds
Of Saginaw Michigan

We're the happiest man
And wife in Saginaw Michigan

He's ashamed to show
His face in Saginaw,Michigan
