Lyrics
Ramblin' through the northland
Goin' to see an old friend
A one I ain’t encountered for ‘bout a year or more
Snaked up through Colorado
And bounded through Chicago
And now I’m rolling down along that Mississippi shore
In Minneapolis
The old deserted milltown
Sends young folks fleeing downtown
And racing all around the bridges up and down the drag
From watchful eyes of old forts
To old Fitzgerald’s old warts
A man could quickly lose himself in empty sturm und drang
In Minneapolis
Dressed up for dancing downtown
I thought I knew the lowdown
Instead I found myself a-wanderin’ ‘round the avenues
A rabbit passed me by there
No tortoise could catch that hare
And chasing after seemed the only noble thing to do
In Minneapolis
