City By The Sea

I wanna come home to a dog that wags his tail

I wanna come home to a ship that doesn't sail

I wanna come home and I wanna go to work

I wanna come home and be just another jerk

I wanna be there for the start of every season

Head back to Fenway, yeah it seems like a good reason

To go home to friends and family, the best thing I ever did

I may be far away, but I'm still a hometown kid

So take me back to where I'm from

Where I'm hated, where I'm loved

Where they welcome me and raised me

To be the man that I've become

Each time I go away

I wish to God that I could stay

Here with you all everyday

Now let that broken record play

I wanna be back where people tell it like it is

Everyone remembers, but nobody forgives

I wanna be home by the ocean so I can smell the sea

I wanna be around a bunch of salty knuckleheads

Like you and me

So take me back to where I'm from

Where I'm hated, where I'm loved

Where they welcome me and raised me

To be the man that I've become

Each time I go away

I wish to God that I could stay

Here with you all everyday

Now let that broken record play

Going home to friends and family,

The best thing I ever did

I may be far away

But I'm still a Boston kid

So take me back to where I'm from

Where I'm hated, where I'm loved

Where they welcome me and raised me

To be the man that I've become

Each time I go away

I wish to God that I could stay

Here with you all everyday

Now let that broken record play

Each time I go away

I wish to God that I could stay

Here with you all everyday

Now let that broken record play
