THE GREAT VOICE
OF THE GREAT LAKES
Kevin Gallagher
©1991
For over thirty years he's been
known
Throughout our state
He's been the sound of summer
Our man behind the plate
The Hall of Fame has claimed him
And his legend is widely known
"The Great Voice of the Great Lakes"
We are proud to call our own
Chorus:
"The Great Voice of the
Great Lakes"
Makes his magic on the radio waves
Season after season there's reason for believin'
That the gentle man has got just what it takes
"The Great Voice of the Great Lakes"
We remember all those summer
afternoons
We've spent with you
We met our childhood heroes and they left
With Florsheim shoes
In those days of black and white
We were Tiger true
With the "Great Voice of the Great
Lakes"
Always coming home to you
Repeat Chorus:
"The Great Voice of the
Great Lakes"
Makes his magic on the radio waves
Season after season there's reason for believin'
The gentle man has got just what it takes
"The Great Voice of the Great Lakes"
Bridge:
The home team didn't always play
As well as we might like
But there was something special
In the man behind the mike
You've been our hometown hero
Always loyal through and through
And the "Great Voice of the Great Lakes"
Always made us think of you
Repeat Chorus:
"The Great Voice of the
Great Lakes"
Makes his magic on the radio waves
Season after season there's reason for believin'
The gentle man has got just what it takes
"The Great Voice of the Great Lakes"
For our great friend,
Ernie Harwell and WJR radio
