lyrics

When it rains it snows
And your grass don’t grow
And your river don’t flow
Lovers come and they go
In Michigan

And we made some cars
And we live in bars
And every where’s far
And we praise rock stars
In Michigan

I ain’t never going back home
I ain’t never going back home

And I am in your face
When we’re at her place
It’s not a race
Just a faster pace
In Michigan

And Jimmy cracked corn
Because his shoes were worn
And his heart is torn
His love was dead and his hate was born
In Michigan

I ain’t never going back home
I ain’t never going back home

And I hope you don’t care
That I don’t like your hair
And that’s why I stare
Because there’s nothing else there
In Michigan

And we’re battered and bruised
But rightly accused
We’re all beaten and used
But where else would you choose
But Michigan?

I ain’t never going back home
I ain’t never going back home

And I love your taste
And the size of your waist
But the ice has encased
All the problems I’ve faced
In Michigan

And the wind it howls
And the trolls they growl
And the wolverines prowl
All the chickens are fowl

I ain’t never going back home
I ain’t never going back home

And we’re veering off course
As we drink with remorse
But the people we endorse
They are worse than a horse
In Michigan

And the governor sighs
As the people all cry
And the bums they die
Because the liquor runs dry
In Michigan

I ain’t never going back home
I ain’t never going back home

When her love is gone
She carries on
But she pleads for the dawn
Because time is long
In Michigan

And your stomach churns
With the lessons learned
And his heart is yearns
For the summer to burn
In Michigan

I ain’t never going back home
I ain’t never going back home

And my face is long
And my mind was wrong
When I wrote this song
There’s somewhere else I do belong to
But I’m in Michigan

I guess I’ll just go back home
I guess I’ll just go back on home, now
I guess I’m just headed back home
