<p></p> <p><b>New page</b></p><div>[[Category: Songs]]<br /> [[Category: Gabe McElwain (Chicago)]]<br /> <br /> I wrote this one with Becky's help, especially on the bridge.<br /> <br /> ==Lyrics==<br /> &lt;pre&gt;<br /> there she was on my front page<br /> her name in letters one inch tall<br /> shock nearly killed me at my age<br /> and here i'd thought i'd got 'em all<br /> <br /> &quot;THE LAST WOLVERINE IN MICHIGAN IS ON THE LOOSE&quot;<br /> i stood up so fast when i saw that<br /> i spilled my orange juice<br /> i'd cleared those monsters out of michigan<br /> back in my prime<br /> i figured i had one more in me<br /> even after all this time<br /> <br /> licked my lips and greased my traps<br /> i sharpened my wolverine knife<br /> filled my canteen, folded my maps<br /> and i set out to end her life<br /> <br /> the last wolverine in michigan<br /> was now my prey<br /> a worthy foe! i felt as though<br /> i hadn't aged a day<br /> and i still knew the wilds of michigan<br /> like my back yard<br /> and i thought that i could take her<br /> but i hoped she'd make it hard<br /> <br /> and that she did<br /> i tracked her over miles of frozen ground<br /> a bitter wind swirled rumors of her savage scent around<br /> she stripped my traps and licked 'em clean<br /> but i gained on her every night<br /> at last we met in the ravine<br /> i drew me up to my full height<br /> <br /> she turned around a little slow<br /> she looked at me with those dark eyes<br /> she laid herself down in the snow<br /> then breathed her last and stole my prize<br /> <br /> the last wolverine in michigan<br /> gave up the ghost<br /> she chose the place, i dug the grave<br /> and marked it with a post<br /> oh the ground is cold in michigan<br /> the sky is grey<br /> and the last wolverine in michigan<br /> is in michigan<br /> to stay<br /> &lt;/pre&gt;</div>
