In the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, there's so much beauty to see

From Houghton and Hancock to Marquette and Negaunee

The Porcupine Mountains, Kitch-iti-Kipi, and the ghost town of Fayette

The Pictured Rocks, the Soo Locks, many places you'll never forget

The Keweenaw Peninsula, and the Portage Lake Lift Bridge

And Ice Fishing in the Winter, is like being in the fridge

From Escanaba and Gladstone, there's so much you can do

Ludington Park, or a visit to the DeYoung Zoo

Van Cleve Park, or a visit to Bond Falls

You go, when the Upper Peninsula calls

Mackinac Island, the Bridge, and the Fort too

There's so much to see, you'll never be through

Tahquamenon Falls, and Baraga State Park

You'll be traveling all day, until it gets dark

Lake Of The Clouds, and Brockway Mountain Drive

There's so much beauty, you'll be happy to be alive

Presque Isle Park, Ishpeming, wherever the road will take you

Stonington to see the butterflies, and skies so very blue

Sugarloaf Mountain, Iron Mountain, and so much more

Beauty found throughout this land, and on every shore

The Upper Peninsula Of Michigan, where beauty is everywhere

It's great to be a Yooper, and wonderful to be living there

It's great to be a Yooper and to enjoy all the beauty of living

in the Upper Peninsula Of Michigan, better known as the U.P.

Whether you are a native returning home for a visit, or a visitor

from elsewhere, it's a great place to visit.
