I Want To Go Back To Michigan Down On The Farm lyrics

1st verse:]
I was born in Michigan
And I wish and wish again
That I was back in the town where I was born
There`s a farm in Michigan
And I`d like to fish again
In the river that flows beside the fields of waving corn
A lonesome soul am I
Here`s the reason why:

[chorus:]
I want to go back
I want to go back
I want to go back to the farm

Far away from harm
With a milk pail on my arm
I miss the rooster
The one who useter
Wake me up at four A.M.

I think your great big city`s very pretty, nevertheless

I want to be there
I want to see there
A certain someone full of charm

That`s why I wish again
That I was in Michigan
Down on the farm

[2nd verse:]
You can keep your cabarets
Where they turn nights into days
I`d rather be where they go to bed at nine
I`ve been gone for seven weeks
And I`ve lost my rosy cheeks
That`s the reason I`d rather have the country life for mine
My thoughts are far away
That`s just why I say
