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 love a girl in Saginaw, Michigan
A daughter of a wealthy wealthy man
But he called me that son of a Saginaw fisherman
Not good enough to claim his daughter's hand

Now I'm up here in Alaska lookin' around for gold
Like a crazy fool I'm a diggin' 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 comin' home please wait for me
And you can tell your dad I'm comin' home a richer man
I 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
Diggin' in the cold cold ground
The greedy fool is lookin'
For the gold I never found

It serves him right and no one here is missin' him
Least of all the newly weds of Saginaw, Michigan

They're the happiest man and wife in Saginaw, Michigan
He's afraid to show his face in Saginaw, Michigan
