about

My Michigan State Fair themed song, Enjoy The Ride, which seeks to capture the joy and family traditions I've come to know following three consecutive years as a Superstar Semifinalist.

lyrics

When I was a younger lad
I went there with my dad
The farris wheel it was so rad
So tall and colored brightly

The rides, man they went so fast
The animals and the circus acts
The clowns and all the acrobats
I wished it'd last forever

Each year we'd come back to this place
This fair, surrounded by the Great Lakes State
Where we'd make some memories
Have us a blast
Pass traditions on down to the next
We're here for a good time
But not a long time
We just grab some great food
And Catch some tunes and
Enjoy The Ride

As summer turns to fall
We gather here, one and all
On these grounds to have a ball
Where differences don't matter

We come together, Black red and white
Religions are all set aside
Underneath this awesome sky
We stand brother to brother

Each year we'd come back to this place
This fair, surrounded by the Great Lakes State
Where we'd make some memories
Have us a blast
Pass traditions on down to the next
We're here for a good time
But not a long time
We just grab some great food
And Catch some tunes and
Enjoy The Ride

With diverse harvests, and livestock
Diverse neighbors coming together
Don't let the world divide us
What's different makes us stronger

Each year we'd come back to this place
This fair, surrounded by the Great Lakes State
Where we'd make some memories
Have us a blast
Pass traditions on down to the next
We're here for a good time
But not a long time
We just grab some great food
And Catch some tunes and
Enjoy The Ride

We just grab some great food
And catch some tunes and
Enjoy The Ride
