(Spoken):
See, I come from Boston;
I'm gonna tell you about how I love New England. It's my favorite place.
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... you know, ladies and gentlemen;
I've already been to Paris, I already been to Rome,
(Da da dum de-dum, de-dum-dum, da-dum-day),
And what did I do but miss my home? (Oh, New England).
I have been out west to Cali-forn',
(Da da 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!
Da da dum de-dum, de-dum-dum, da-dum-day,
Oh, New England,
Da da dum de-dum, de-dum-dum, da-dum-day,
Oh, New England. Ride awhile now...
Doddly-doodly-do-do-doo-do-do, doddly-doodly-do-do-doo-do-do.
Doddly-doodly-do-do-doo-do-do, doddly-doodly-do-do-doo-do-do.
I have seen Old Israel's, arid plain,
(Da da dum de-dum, de-dum-dum, da-dum-day),
It's magnificent, but, so's Maine.
(Oh, New England).
Da da dum de-dum, de-dum-dum, da-dum-day,
Oh, New England,
Da da dum de-dum, de-dum-dum, da-dum-day,
Oh, New England. Ride awhile...
Doddly-doodly-do-do-doo-do-do, doddly-doodly-do-do-doo-do-do.
Doddly-doodly-do-do-doo-do-do, doddly-doodly-do-do-doo-dum-da-dum-day.
Da da dum de-dum, de-dum-dum, da-dum-day,
Oh, I love New England,
Da da dum de-dum, de-dum-dum, da-dum-day,
Oh, New England. Acapella now...
Da da dum de-dum, de-dum-dum, da-dum-day, oh, New England,
Da da dum de-dum, de-dum-dum, da-dum-day, oh, one more time a-this way;
Da da dum de-dum, de-dum-dum, da-dum-day, oh, New England,
Da da dum de-dum, de-dum-dum, da-dum-day, oh, New England, go!
Da da dum de-dum, de-dum-dum, da-dum-day,
Oh, I love New England,
Da da dum de-dum, de-dum-dum, da-dum-day,
Oh...New England.
