The Andrews Sisters

The Andrews Sisters were a highly successful close harmony singing group of the swing and boogie-woogie eras. The group consisted of three sisters: contralto LaVerne Sophia Andrews (July 6, 1911 – May 8, 1967), soprano Maxene Angelyn Andrews (January 3, 1916 – October 21, 1995), and mezzo-soprano Patricia Marie "Patty" Andrews (born February 16, 1918). Throughout their long career, the sisters sold well over 75 million records (the last official count released by MCA Records in the mid-1970s). Their 1941 hit "Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy" can be considered an early example of rhythm and blues or jump blues. more »

I was born in Michigan and I wish and wish again
That I was back in the town where I was born
There's a farm in Michigan and I'd like to fish again
In the river that flows beside the fields of waving corn
A lonesome soul am I, here's the reason why

I wanna go back, I wanna go back
I wanna go back to the farm
Far away from harm
With a milk pail on my arm
I miss the rooster, the one that used to 
Wake me up at four a.m.
I think a great big city's very pretty 
Nevertheless I wanna be there, I wanna see there 
A certain someone full of charm
That's why I wish again that I was in Michigan
Down on the farm
I wanna go back, I wanna go back
I wanna go back to the farm
Far away from harm
With a milk pail on my arm
I miss the rooster, the one that used to 
Wake me up at four a.m.
I think a great big city's very pretty 
Nevertheless I wanna be there, I wanna see there 
A certain someone full of charm
That's why I wish again that I was in Michigan
Down on the farm

That's why I wish again that I was in Michigan
Down on the farm
