If you ever move up north just know i gotta warn ya
That this town was built on gravel roads and rumors that'll bore ya
They move a little quicker than a west coast
wind coming round an east coast bend
But i know that i've had to fend for myself once before ya
Id like to say my heart ain't cold but if yours drops down below,
Ill show you how i can be a scumbag heathen
Walking down the road i know there's trauma
But ill row my boat and if it tips ill keep afloat and ill just stay a breathing

I know them and they know me
it's like we're one big family
But we all know that families got their drama
I know right now you can't see
but they'll come with guns and cavalry
To take you down and push you out this old snow filled town
But through it all i'll stand tall, if you wanna walk you gotta crawl
Through the talk of this here town it's small but you'll find a way to love it
If you come you'll want to stay, there's beauty in the northern lakes and every Corner round em has a summit

Some have been here there whole life,
Following that palding light
The way their chasing dreams that ain't never really there
And when I see that welcome sign
It takes me back to pedal bikes
When me and all my buddies really never had a care
This town lately's been killing me,
Petty folks and jealousy have made their marks like a world war
Were watching one be made
Our ancestors they built this town
When they mined out all that copper ground
For a penny, and I'd bet one now that they're rolling in their graves

From ski hill walks to breakers talks
On the beach, skipping rocks I s'pose,
Looking past the bad there's a lot of good to come from it
Like July days on the water, lighting up another Marlboro smoke,
With a couple of friends in the end that usually does it
Stokin a 'gar, or stokin a fire
A sauna swimming Friday nighter I know
There wasn't a time, those nights, that we weren't buzzing
Gathering round with a couple guitars
Singing along and playing out our hearts
One of those times u won't forget a second of it

If by now you don't now
This song right here's about my home
So go ahead, call it an ode,
To houghton michigan
