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 he said I wasn't 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 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 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 looking for the gold I never found And it serves him right and no one here is missing him Least of all the newlyweds of Saginaw, Michigan. Least of all the newlyweds of Saginaw, Michigan
