New England Songtext
von Jonathan Richman

See, I come from Boston
I′m gonna tell y'all about how I love New England, it′s my favorite place
And I've been all around the world, but I love New England best
I might be prejudiced, but it's true, I love New England best

Well, now, I′ll give you the maestro
That′s pretty good
Give me another one though, without the-
You know, ladies and gentlemen

I've already been to Paris, already been to Rome
(Dum-de-dum-de-dum-dum-da-dum-day)
And what did I do but miss my home? (Oh-oh New England)
I have been out West to Californ′ (dum-de-dum-de-dum-dum-da-dum-day)
But I miss the land where I was born (oh, New England)

I can't help it, dum-de-dum-de-dum-dum-da-dum-day
Oh, New England
Dum-de-dum-de-dum-dum-da-dum-day
Oh-oh, New England (glad you′re well being)


Doodly-doodly-do-do-doo-do-do
Doodly-doodly-do-do-doo-do-do
Doodly-doodly-do-do-doo-do-do
Doodly-doodly-do-do-doo-do-do

I have seen old Israel's arid plain
Dum-de-dum-de-dum-dum-da-dum-day
It′s magnificent, but so's Maine (oh-oh, New England)

I'm talkin′, dum-de-dum-de-dum-dum-da-dum-day
Oh, New England
Dum-de-dum-de-dum-dum-da-dum-day
Oh-oh, New England (glad you′re well)

Doodly-doodly-do-do-doo-do-do
Doodly-doodly-do-do-doo-do-do
Doodly-doodly-do-do-doo-do-do (right)
Doodly-doodly-do-do-doo-do-do (dum-de-dum-day)

Dum-de-dum-de-dum-dum-da-dum-day
Oh, I love New England
Dum-de-dum-de-dum-dum-da-dum-day
Oh-oh, New England


(Acapella now) dum-de-dum-de-dum-dum-da-dum-day
Oh, New England
Dum-de-dum-de-dum-dum-da-dum-day
Oh-oh, New England (one more time this way)
Dum-de-dum-de-dum-dum-da-dum-day
Oh, New England
Dum-de-dum-de-dum-dum-da-dum-day
Oh-oh, New England

(Go) dum-de-dum-de-dum-dum-da-dum-day
Oh, New England (oh, I love New England)
Dum-de-dum-de-dum-dum-da-dum-day
Oh-oh, New England
