Springport
Liner notes
A heartland rock song with gritty vocals about growing up near Oyer's Corner in Springport, Michigan. The lyrics reflect on the roar of engines from the Springport Motor Speedway and driving down M-99. It captures the small-town spirit of Jackson County, echoing the history of the old telephone company switchboard.
