Please come to Boston for the springtime

I'm staying here with some friends and they've got lots of room

And you can sell your paintings on the sidewalk

By a cafe where I hope to be working soon

Please come to Boston

But she said "No, would you come home to me."



And she said "Ramblin' boy, why don't ya settle down?

Boston ain't your kind of town

There ain't no gold and there ain't nobody like me

I'm the number one fan of the man from Tennessee..."



Please come to Denver with the snowfall

We'll move up into the mountains so far we can't be found

And throw "I love you" echoes down the canyon

And then lie awake at night until they come back around

Please come to Denver

She said "No, would you come home to me."



And she said "Ramblin' boy, why don't ya settle down?

Denver ain't your kinda town

There ain't no gold and there ain't nobody like me

I'm the number one fan of the man from Tennessee..."



Now this drifter's world goes round and round

And I doubt if it's ever gonna stop

But of all the dreams I've lost or found

And all that I ain't got

I still need to lean to

Somebody I can sing to



Please come to L.A. to live forever

California life alone is just too hard to build

I live in a house that looks out over the ocean

And there's some stars that fell from the sky, livin' up on the hill

Please come to L.A.

But she said "No, would you come home to me."



And she said "Ramblin' boy, why don't ya settle down?

L.A. ain't your kinda town

There ain't no gold and there ain't nobody like me

I'm the number one fan of the man from Tennessee..."



I'm the number one fan of the man from Tennessee
