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' back a richer man I've hit the biggest strike in Klondike history." Her dad met me in Saginaw, Michigan He threw me a great big party with champagne And he said,"Son, you wise, young, ambitious man, Will you sell your father all your Klondike claim?" Chorus: 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 At least not the newlyweds of Saginaw, Michigan.
