I was born in Saginaw, MichiganI grew up in a house on Saginaw bayMy dad was a poor, hard working Saginaw fishermanToo many times he came home with too little payI loved a girl in Saginaw, MichiganThe daughter of a wealthy, wealthy manBut he called me 'that son of a Saginaw fisherman'And not good enough to claim his daughter's handNow I'm up here in Alaska, looking around for goldLike a crazy fool, I'm digging in this frozen ground so coldBut with each new day, I pray I'll strike it rich and thenI'll go back home and claim my love in Saginaw, MichiganI wrote my love in Saginaw, MichiganI said Honey, I'm coming home please wait for meAnd you can tell your dad, I'm coming back a richer manI hit the biggest strike in Klondike historyHer dad met me in Saginaw, MichiganHe gave me a great big party with champagneThen he said Son, you're wise young ambitious manWill you sell your father-in-law your Klondike claim?Now he's up there in Alaska, diggin' in the cold, cold groundThe greedy fool is looking for the gold I never foundIt serves him right, and no one here is missing himLeast of all the newlyweds of Saginaw, MichiganWe're the happiest man and wife in Saginaw, MichiganHe's ashamed to show his face in Saginaw, Michigan
