[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
