New England lyrics

[written by Johnathan Richman]



well i`ve already been to Paris, i`ve already been to Rome

but what did i do but miss my home

oh new england

i went out west to Californ

but i missed the land where i was born

i can`t help it



oh new england



i`ve seen old isreal`s arab plains

it`s quite magnificent, but so is Maine



oh New England





[3rd verse by Big D]</i>



now if you like Camden in North London

we got that spirit here in Allston

now many people ask "where you from?"

with a heartfelt smile i say "from Boston"

oh, New England
