Saginaw Michigan - Johnny Cash[00:00:00]
I was born in Saginaw Michigan[00:00:05]
And I grew up in a house on Saginaw Bay[00:00:11]
My daddy was a poor hard working Saginaw fisherman[00:00:16]
Too many times he came home with too little pay[00:00:22]
I loved a girl in Saginaw Michigan[00:00:27]
She was the daughter of a wealthy wealthy man[00:00:34]
But he called me "That son of a Saginaw fisherman"[00:00:39]
And not good enough to ever claim his daughter's hand[00:00:45]
That's why I'm up here in Alaska looking around for gold[00:00:50]
Like a crazy fool I'm a digging in the frozen ground so cold[00:00:57]
But with each new day I pray I'll strike it rich and then[00:01:02]
I'll go back home and claim my love in Saginaw Michigan[00:01:08]
I wrote my love in Saginaw Michigan[00:01:13]
I said "Honey I'm a coming home please wait for me[00:01:20]
And you can tell your dad that I'm coming back a richer man[00:01:25]
I've hit the biggest strike in Klondyke history"[00:01:30]
Her dad met the bus in Saginaw Michigan[00:01:36]
And he gave me a great big party with champagne[00:01:42]
Then he said "Son you're wise young ambitious man[00:01:48]
Why don't you sell your father-in-law your Klondyke claim "[00:01:53]
Now he's up there in Alaska digging in the cold cold ground[00:02:00]
That greedy fool is a looking for the gold I never found[00:02:05]
But it serves him right and nobody here is missing him[00:02:11]
Least of all the newly-weds of Saginaw Michigan[00:02:16]
