Lyrics
Thirteen hundred and fifty miles to Michigan
Time to take a road trip, time to see my kin
West of Houston, that's now my home
Between the Brazos and San Antone
A bag full of memories from everywhere I have been
We spent six years in Florida, me and my gal
These were some of the easiest years I remember well
But we lost the best that we had
Things turned lonesome, things turned sad
Packin' this bag with hellos and farewells
There's a place way up north in Ontario
I swear my soul was born on the shore in the shallows
But there's a price you pay for the guilt
Of livin' the dream your father never fulfilled
Draggin' this bag everywhere I go
Thirteen hundred and fifty miles to Michigan
I keep moving farther and farther away from my friends and kin
West of Houston, that's now my home
Between the Brazos and San Antone
Draggin' this big ol' bag til the very end
