life in boston
it is not home for me
but
i can still drift in my mind

learning home
does not have to be
now
and drifting in my mind to home will have to do

He said please come to boston
For the springtime
Im stayin here with some friends
And theyve 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

Chorus:
(and) I said, ramblin boy
Why dont you settle down
(boston, denver, l.a.) aint your kind of town
There aint no gold
And there aint nobody like me
Im the number one fan
Of the man from tennessee

He said, please come to denver
With the snowfall
Well move up into the mountains
So far we cant be found
And throw I love you echos
Down the canyons
And then lie awake at night
Until they come back around
Please come to denver
I just said no boy wont you come home to me

Repeat chorus:

Now that drifters word
Goes round and round
And I doubt if its ever gonna stop
But of all the dreams
Hes lost or found
And all that I aint got
Hes 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 theres some stars
That fell from the sky
Livin up on the hill
Please come to l.a.
I just said no
Boy, wont you come home to me

Repeat chorus

Im the number one fan
Of the man from tennessee
Tennessee
