Lyrics

NORTHERN COUNTRY

VERSE 1
Great-Great Grandad was a Union soldier wounded once in the Civil War
Carried the flags from Appomattox to make the nation whole once more
His grandson his name was Hank, he was born a Connecticut Yank
Went to Detroit, sold some goods, and fell in love with the Northern Woods

CHORUS
I'm just Northern County, spent time on both coasts
Home is Northern Country, I love the Great Lakes most
I'm just Northern Country, with that I'm just fine
Home is Northern Country, among the northern pines

VERSE 2
When I was a young boy looking for something, hoping there was something to find
When I was a young boy looking for something, learned to be of my own mind
When I was a young man looking for something, wondering about faith
Then as a young man I found something, I found comfort in this place

CHORUS

BRIDGE

CHORUS

VERSE 3
Daddy love to walk in the North Woods, sometimes he'd carry a gun
For forty years he hunted deer, all that time he only bagged one
Then, he only shot with his camera, I guess he thought it was more fun
I love to trek in the north woods, I must be my father's son

VERSE 4
Great-Great Grandad was a Union soldier wounded once in the Civil War
Carried the flags from Appomattox to make the nation whole once more
His grandson his name was Hank, he was born a Connecticut Yank
Went to Detroit, sold some goods, and fell in love with the Northern Woods
