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 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 diggin' 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 wrote my love in Saginaw Michigan I said honey I'm a 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 Klondyke 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 ambitious man Will you sell your father-in-law your Klondyke claim Now he's up there in Alaska a diggin' in the cold cold ground Like a greedy fool is a lookin' for the gold I never found It serves him right no one here is missing him Least of all the newly weds of Saginaw Michigan Least of all the newly weds of Saginaw Michigan We're the happiest man and wife in Saginaw MichiganTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
