She  called me up this mornin,
 Said there's something  you should know,
 There's a job  back home in Boston,
 And I think  I'm gonna go,
My  parents are in Cambridge,
 And, I've  got some old friends there,
And  I know you think  this isn't fair,
 (chorus)
 And the tears  started  falling,
 There was nothing  I could say,
 Even if I fight it, someone loses either way,
 Oh, it might  as well be China,
 Or the  dark side of the moon,
 There's  no way I can  be there,
 Every Friday  afternoon
 (verse 2)
I  have him every weekend,
He's  got his own room here,
He's  all that's kept me going,
These  last three years,
There's  little league in Boston,
 Oh, but  who will coach his team,
How's  he gonna grow  up, without me,
 (chorus)
 And the tears  started  falling,
 There was nothing  I could say,

 Oh, it might  as well be China,

What  about Christmas,
 If I can't  get off  of  work,
What  about his birthday,
 If I'm not  there he'll  be hurt,
I  know the day is coming,
 When she'll  find someone  new,
But,  he'll never love  him like I  do

 Oh, it might  as well be China,
 Or the dark  side of the moon,
 There's no  way I can  be there,
 Every Friday afternoon
