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 not good enough

To claim his daughter's hand

Now I'm up here in Alaska

Looking around for gold

Like a crazy fool I'm a 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 a coming home

Please wait for me

And you can tell your dad

I'm coming back a richer man

I've hit the biggest strike

In Klondyke history

Her dad met me in Saginaw Michigan

He gave me a great

Big party with champagne

Then he said: Son you're wise

Young ambitious man

Will you sell your father-in-law

Your Klondyke claim

Now he's up there in Alaska

Digging in the cold cold ground

The greedy fool is a looking

For the gold I never found

It serves him right

And no-one here is missing him

Least of all the newly-weds

Of Saginaw Michigan

We're the happiest man

And wife in Saginaw Michigan
