Via Bronx Banter, I find that Lefty Frizzell wrote, or at least performed, a song by the name of "Saginaw, Michigan".
I feel obligated to point out that Saginaw is not actually on Saginaw Bay, or even particularly close. If his father were a fisherman, he'd either be from Bay City (more of a lumber town, really) or someplace like Au Gres or Sebewaing. And if you can't trust country music to tell it to you straight, who can you trust?
"Thou shalt not extinguish thine anger, but shall master it,
that thy conscience may not be blunted by adjustment
to wrong causes."
