Bad Axe, MI – Air Traffic Controller

I met a man from Bad Axe, Michigan
He had a drummer who was also from Bad Axe
They came over to Boston
When they heard that’s where, the music is
And got an apartment where all their friends could hang around or live

They stayed a while, they played their songs
They gave us lots of hope like nothing could go wrong
They cut a demo, it just made sense
It’s plain good rock and roll with Beatles influence

Oh, oh, oh, oh, and if Bad Axe was here
Well they’d turn this mutha out
Yeah, everyone would cheer
And everyone would shout
“One more song, one more song
You’ll find where you belong
But don’t forget now where you came from
Don’t forget where you have been”
You boys are from Bad Axe, Michigan

Started a family, now times are tough
It seems we songwriters, we’re never make enough
So he’s off to Nashville, he’s tired of this
Maybe this Boston music scene was just a myth

Oh, oh, oh, oh, and if Bad Axe was here
Well they’d turn this mutha out
Yeah, everyone would cheer
And everyone would shout
“One more song, one more song
You’ll find where you belong
But don’t forget now where you came from
Don’t forget where you have been”
You boys are from Bad Axe, Michigan
