Old Minnesota - Song of the North Star

Price: $16.00

Minneapolis on the Mississippi rollin in the dough growin with the flow
Milling what they sew out on the prairie
Hard spring wheat for cash they grew back when old Minnesota was new
Wagon to the elevator grain by the train to the Queen Mill City of the West
The West? Queen Mill City of the World!

Let the rolling mills roll what a grind what a find when they found
How to purify the middlings when they rolled that wheat around
No more brown speckled bran bread is the soul of man
Heaven is leavened and wants it right
Bag the flour and ship it pure and white

Minneapolis on the Mississippi rollin in the dough growin with the flow
Milling what they sew out on the prairie
Hard spring wheat is what they grew back when Old Minnesota was new
Wagon to the elevator grain by the train to the Queen Mill City of the West
The West? Queen Mill City of the World!
