"Back To Ypsilanti"
(The Ypsi Song)
Music/Lyrics by Lee Osler
copyright 1983 Lee Osler (BMI)


In Michigan there is a place called Ypsilanti it is a small, small town. I like to think about the times in Ypsilanti Oh how they love to get down.

I'm going back to Ypsilanti, back to Ypsilant where I come from. I'm going back to Ypsilanti, back to Ypsilant to have some fun.

It's just about thirty miles west of the big "D' Detroit city.
It is a small college town. They all have rhythm and they sing in Ypsilanti. Oh how they love to get down.

I'm going back to Ypsilanti, back to Ypsilant where I come from. I'm going back to Ypsilanti, back to Ypsilant to have some fun.

In Ypsilanti there's a big old watertower. Ypsilanti, It's a name from ancient Greece.
In Ypsilanti people coming every hour. Ypsilanti, It's such a nice place to be.

I'm going back to Ypsilanti, back to Ypsilant where I come from. I'm going back to Ypsilanti, back to Ypsilant to have some fun.

In Ypsilanti you can get an education. Ypsilanti, study hard at E.M.U. Some people come from over sea's to Ypsilanti. Ypsilanti there's a chance for me and you.

I'm going back to Ypsilanti, back to Ypsilant where I come from. I'm going back to Ypsilanti, back to Ypsilant to have some fun.

(MUSICAL BREAK)

In Ypsilanti there's a big old watertower. Ypsilanti, It's a name from ancient Greece.
In Ypsilanti people coming every hour. Ypsilanti, It's such a nice place to be.

I'm going back to Ypsilanti, back to Ypsilant where I come from. I'm going back to Ypsilanti, back to Ypsilanti to have some fun.

I'm a going back, I'm a going back, to ypsi city yeah where the girls they are so pretty. Going back, going back, going back.

Down in depot town where they used to hang around, up on cross street where they used to eat at LEE'S. Down on Washtenaw, where it's such a busy street. Back on Chicago Road where it's called the Ave I'm told.

I'm going back to Ypsilanti, back to Ypsilant to have some fun. YPSILANTI! YPSILANTI! Here I come, here I come. YPSILANTI! YPSILANTI! Here I come, here I come.

Ypsi, going back to ypsi. here I come.
Ypsi, going back to ypsi. here I come.
