The Transplant Song Lyrics

The Transplant Song lyrics

I WAS SITTING IN A DETROIT BAR THIS GUY HE SAYS TO ME 

YOU MUST BE FROM CANADA, NEWFOUNDLAND MAYBE 

NO, I SAID, YOUR SLIGHTLY OFF, AS I POINTED WITH MY BEER 

I’M FROM UP ABOVE THE MITTEN, THIS PLACE OVER HERE 

I STILL WEAR MY SWAMPERS AND I DRIVE MY BEAT UP TRUCK 

I GO UP TO WITCH LAKE EVERY YEAR TO GET MY BUCK 

WHEN I GET BACK TO DETROIT ALL THE GUYS THEY LAUGH AT ME 

TWO WEEKS AT THE DEER CAMP AND I’M SPEAKING YOOPANESE 

I’M A YOOPERMAN FROM YOOPERLAND, YOU’LL FIND US EVERYWHERE 

I COME HERE FOR THE PAYCHECKS, BUT I MISS THAT U.P. AIR 

I’M A YOOPERMAN FROM YOOPERLAND, I’M NOT DOWN HERE BY CHOICE 

MY HEART IS BACK IN YOOPERLAND BUT MY ASS IS IN DETROIT 



MY WIFE IS FROM MT. CLEMENS, SHE’S A TROLL FROM DOWN BELOW 

I DRAGGED HER UP TO YOOPERLAND, SHE DIDN’T WANNA GO 

BUT WHEN SHE SAW THE COLORS AND SHE SMELLED THAT U.P. AIR 

NOW SHE WANTS TO QUIT HER JOB AND GO TO LIVE UP THERE 

I WORK HARD FOR HENRY FORD I NEVER MISS A DAY 

I DON’T LIKE THE CITY BUT I SURE DON’T MIND THE PAY 

MY KIDS WERE BORN BELOW THE BRIDGE BUT THEIR ROOTS THEY CAN’T FORGET 

WE HEAD NORTH TO YOOPERLAND EVERY CHANCE WE GET 



I’M A YOOPERMAN FROM YOOPERLAND, YOU’LL FIND US EVERYWHERE 

I COME HERE FOR THE PAYCHECKS, BUT I MISS THAT U.P. AIR 

I’M A YOOPERMAN FROM YOOPERLAND, IM NOT DOWN HERE BY CHOICE 

MY HEART IS BACK IN YOOPERLAND, BUT MY ASS IS IN DETROIT
