[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]
    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
