Saginaw Michigan - Lyrics - Roy Drusky

Title: Saginaw Michigan
Artist: Roy Drusky
Composer(s): Donald Wayne, Bill Anderson

Lyric:
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 nights 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"
Not good enough to claim his daughter's hand

That's why I'm up here in Alaska looking around for gold
Like a crazy fool I'm diggin' 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 coming home, please wait for me
You can tell your dad I'm coming back a richer man
I've hit the biggest strike in Klondike history"

Her dad met me in Saginaw Michigan
He gave me a great big party with champagne
Then he said, "Son you're a wise, young, ambitious man
Will you sell your father-in-law your Klondike claim?"

So now he's up there in Alaska diggin' in the cold, cold ground
The greedy fool is a lookin' 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

Least of all the newly weds of Saginaw Michigan
Least of all the newly weds of Saginaw Michigan

Saginaw Michigan - Lyrics - Lefty Frizzel

Title: Saginaw Michigan
Artist: Lefty Frizzel
Composer(s): B Anderson, D Wayne

Lyric:
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 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 coming home please wait for me
And you can tell your dad, I'm coming back a richer man
I hit the biggest strike in Klondike 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 Klondike claim?"

Now he's up there in Alaska, diggin' in the cold, cold 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

Lyric:

Too many times he came home with too little pay

I loved a girl in Saginaw, Michigan
She was the daughter of a wealthy, wealthy man
But he called me, "That son of a Saginaw fisherman"
And not good enough to ever claim his daughter's hand

That's why I'm up here in Alaska looking around for gold
Like a crazy fool I'm a digging in the 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 said, "Honey, I'm a coming home, please wait for me
And you can tell your dad that I'm coming back a richer man
I've hit the biggest strike in Klondyke history"

Her dad met the bus in Saginaw, Michigan
And he gave me a great big party with champagne
Then he said, "Son, you're wise, young ambitious man
Why don't you sell your father-in-law your Klondyke claim?"

Now he's up there in Alaska digging in the cold, cold ground
That greedy fool is a looking for the gold I never found
But it serves him right and nobody here is missing him
