[00:07.27]I was born in Saginaw Michigan I grew up in a house on Saginaw bay
[00:20.59]My dad was a poor hard working Saginaw fisherman
[00:26.83]Too many times he came home with too little pay
[00:33.46]I loved a girl in Saginaw Michigan the daughter of a wealthy wealthy man
[00:46.72]But he called me that son of a Saginaw fisherman
[00:53.06]And not good enough to claim his daughter's hand
[01:00.13]Now I'm up here in Alaska looking around for gold
[01:07.11]Like a crazy fool I'm a digging in this frozen ground so cold
[01:15.28]But with each new day I pray I'll strike it rich and then
[01:21.10]I'll go back home and claim my love in Saginaw Michigan
[01:27.81]I wrote my love in Saginaw Michigan
[01:35.28]I said honey I'm a coming home please wait for me
[01:40.47]And you can tell your dad I'm coming home a richer man
[01:47.63]I've hit the biggest strike in Klondyke history
[01:54.19]Her dad met me in Saginaw Michigan he gave me a great big party with champagne
[02:06.58]Then he said son you're wise young ambitious man
[02:14.00]Will you sell your father-in-law your Klondyke claim
[02:21.28]Now he's up there in Alaska digging in the cold cold ground
[02:27.81]The greedy fool is a looking for the gold I never found
[02:36.19]It serves him right and no one here is missing him
[02:42.19]Least of all the newly weds of Saginaw Michigan
[02:49.15]We're the happiest man and wife in Saginaw Michigan
[02:55.37]He's ashamed to show his face in Saginaw Michigan
[02:58.66]
