Spoke to my girl on the phone today

She said she wish i'd come there right away

In boston, massachusetts where she lives

I got to get there, oh the love she gives

Catch a plane and soon i will be gone

And i'll be in her arms before too long

In boston, massachusetts she'll be there

And we'll be together everywhere

See i'm leaving cause i'm sad

Got a girl and i want to see her bad

You see i'm not leaving cause of you

I just can't stand to sit here feeling blue

Can't go on when i don't like this town

I feel so bad not having her around

In boston, massachusetts where she lives

Got to get there, oh the love she gives
