"Take A Michigan Left"
Written by Scott CooleyTake a Michigan Left, a U-turn then a right
Drive until you leave the mile roads behind
Get out of the city to get some peace of mind
Head up north with lakes or woods in sight
Take a Michigan Left, a U-turn then a right
Go off on a tangent after you change your mind
Love me and leave me, or make up after a fight
You'll get where you want to be in due time
Wear your tennis shoes for comfort, whether you play or not
When you see a party store, stop and get a cold pop
There's no use in getting political, you're in a swing state
If you're directionally challenged, you'll probably be late
Take a Michigan Left, a U-turn then a right
It may feel wrong but out of your way is just alright
When your destination is in the mirror behind
Your past is a map to a future that's bright
