Up North - [Official Music Video]

Ok, so tings got a little outta hand on the pontoon on my trip up north this summer. Fine. It's been a hard year what with the covid and all you know?! But still, nortern Michigan is hands down my favorite place in da whole world and well, I had to write a song about it! So here's a lil music video from footage I took during my trip to show you just how great lake life is, no matter what happened. And you know please like and subscribe! Show it to your co-workers heh heh, watch it by the campfire, or send it to your favorite dad out there. Lord knows he probably needs it....Vive le pontoon!

Here are the words to da song for those of ya who are literay types:

Every summer I find a place to rent
On a lake that I haven’t been to yet
My wife and kids go somewhere like Cancun
But I prefer a place where I might see a Loon

Up North
And I rented a Pontoon
Up North
And it’s drunk o’clock at noon
I’m taking myself tubing, I’m burning my skin
Yeah I ain’t feeling lonely, cuz Labatt is my friend
This is my vacation for da year
So you better believe I’m gonna drink another beer

Last night my wife gave me a call
I just let it ring and ring and fall
She’s probably mad our credit cards are maxxed
She said no pontoon this year but she can kiss my a$$

Up North
And I rented a Pontoon
Up north
And it’s drunk o’clock at noon
Oh gosh I crashed the pontoon into another boat
The damage to the hull looks more than I can float
I’m gonna drive away now and leave this mess behind
And go back to my cabin and drink it out of mind!

Oh gosh here comes da Marine Patrol
Screamin at me like I’m an animal
I jump in and try to swim away
But then they pull me out and put me in restraints

Up North
And I rented a Pontoon
Up North
And it’s drunk o’clock at noon
They throw me in a jail cell overnight
And write me up a ticket for a BUI
I couldn’t believe it, I swear on my life
I didn’t even know drinkin and boating is a crime!

Now I’m driving down I-75
Thinking bout what I’ll tell and not tell my wife
If I’m being honest she’s probably gonna leave
So how bout we keep this just t’ween you and me

Up North
And I rented a pontoon
Up North
And it’s drunk o’clock at noon
I swear that I’ll be better, I swear I’m gonna quit
I’ll do it for my wife, I’ll do it for my kids
Maybe it’s time I started to admit, I think I might be an alcohol-
Ehhhh….
I mean you know, this really is my one vacation for da year so
I don’t really see a problem with just a couple beers!

Up North!
