Life is my friend
Rake it up to take it in
Wrap me in your cinnamon
Especially in Michigan
...well I could be your friend
White clouds I'm in
A mitten full of fisherman
C'mon Huckleberry Finn
Show me how to make her grin
...well I'm in Michigan
Cry me a future
Where the revelations run amok
Ladies and gentlemen
Lions and tigers come running
Just to steal your luck
A rainy Lithuanian
Who's dancing as an Indian
Painted in my tiger skin
(Especially in Michigan)
Double chins and bowling pins
Unholy Presbyterians
Land is full of medicine
I find it when I'm slipping in
...into Michigan
The tainted new librarian
Who fainted when she tucked you in
Let's float away like zeppelins
(On stoic gusts of Northern wind)
Out on the farm we'll be
Swimming with the mother duck
Deep in the mitten where
Lions and tigers come running
Just to steal your luck
Life is my friend
Underwater violins
Order now from Ho Chi Min
A porcelain that comes in twins
..........When I'm in Michigan
Throw me in the looney bin
'Cause I can take it on the chin
The cleavage of your pillow skin
(Is moving like a violin)
Rake it up to take it in
Wrap me in your cinnamon
Especially in Michigan
...well I could be your friend
White clouds I'm in
A mitten full of fisherman
C'mon Huckleberry Finn
Show me how to make her grin
...well I'm in Michigan
Cry me a future
Where the revelations run amok
Ladies and gentlemen
Lions and tigers come running
Just to steal your luck
A rainy Lithuanian
Who's dancing as an Indian
Painted in my tiger skin
(Especially in Michigan)
Double chins and bowling pins
Unholy Presbyterians
Land is full of medicine
I find it when I'm slipping in
...into Michigan
The tainted new librarian
Who fainted when she tucked you in
Let's float away like zeppelins
(On stoic gusts of Northern wind)
Out on the farm we'll be
Swimming with the mother duck
Deep in the mitten where
Lions and tigers come running
Just to steal your luck
Life is my friend
Underwater violins
Order now from Ho Chi Min
A porcelain that comes in twins
..........When I'm in Michigan
Throw me in the looney bin
'Cause I can take it on the chin
The cleavage of your pillow skin
(Is moving like a violin)

All that comes to me when I hear this is how Agent Orange, a chemical used to defoliate trees during the Vietnam War, was manufactured in Michigan by Dow Chemical, and how planes from Grayling were used to spread it on Vietnam. The Ho Chi Min trail happens also to be in Vietnam. Anyone else have an idea?
"A mitten full of fisherman"
Could be obviously Michigan is the shape of a mitten and known for fishing since there are so many lakes.
"Lions and tigers come running
Just to steal your luck"
This makes the most sense using lions and tiger as the sport teams, and how much people obsess over them or also how the tigers use to be really good but they've went down a bit.
"Who's dancing as an Indian"
The only thing i can think of is the indians or how most of the citys are indian names.
"Double chins and bowling pins"
Double chins just makes sense because Michigans known for fat people and "bowling pins" reminds me of all the bowling places there.
"Land is full of medicine"
Michigan is known for great hostpitols and such
"Out on the farm we'll be
Swimming with the mother duck"
They have great outdoors, it reminds me of when i use to go to the lakes, or to my uncles farm.
