Big Ball In Boston lyrics

Nick ReynoldsBob ShaneJohn Stewart

Chorus:
Well, there`s a big ball in Boston, big ball in town. Big ball in Boston, I`m gonna get on down.

The birthplace of our nation is Boston so they say. They try to keep it as it was but it`s changing ev`ry day.

(Chorus)

The Red Coats, they were comin`, their cloth was made of tweed. Some say their shirts were button down (The tradition is Ivy League.)

(Chorus)

We met a chap from Harvard, very slim and pale. The last time that we saw him he was dancing with a cat from Yale.

(Chorus)

And just a mile from Harvard`s a campus you should see. M I T K E Y M O U S E

(Chorus)

The folks who come from Boston are said to be quite dated. So whadda ya have to say, my friend?
Well, uh, Bobby and Teddy and I made it.

(Chorus)
