Please Come To Boston

Reba McEntire · I'll Be [2000]

He said please come to Boston for the springtime

I'm stayin' here with some friends

And they've got lots of room

You can sell your paintings on the sidewalk

By a cafe where I hope to be workin' soon

Please come to Boston

I said no, boy would you come home to me



I said, ramblin' boy why don't you settle down

Boston ain't your kind of town

There ain't no gold, and there ain't nobody like me

I'm the number one fan of the man from Tennessee



He said please come to Denver with the snowfall

We'll move up into the mountains so far we can't be found

And throw I love you echos down the canyon

And then lie awake at night until they come back around

Please come to Denver

I just said no, boy won't you come home to me



I said, ramblin' boy why don't you settle down

Denver ain't your kind of town

There ain't no gold, and there ain't nobody like me

I'm the number one fan of the man from Tennessee



Now that drifter's word goes round and round

And I doubt if it's ever gonna stop

But of all the dreams he's lost or found

And all that I ain't got

He's still needs to lean to

Somebody he can sing to



He said please come to L.A. to live forever

A California life alone is just too hard to build

I live in a house that looks out over the ocean

And there's some stars that fell from the sky

Livin' up on the hill

Please come to L.A.

I just said no, boy won't you come home to me



And I said, ramblin' boy why don't you settle down

L.A. can't be your kind of town

There ain't no gold, and there ain't nobody like me

I'm the number one fan of the man from Tennessee

I'm the number one fan of the man from Tennessee

Tennessee
