Lyrics
[Verse 1]
She comes from Boston
Works at the jewelry store
Down in the harbor
Where the ferries come to shore
She never really knew how good it would feel
To finally find herself in a place so warm and real
[Verse 2]
She wears a Red Sox cap to hide her baby dreads
The girl she was in New England is different now and dead
In all the local bars she flirts and tells the boys while they're talking
She's
From Boston
[Verse 3]
She comes from Boston
Talks to her family now and then
Through e-mails and postcards she tries to explain to them
That education and occupation will have to wait for now
She loves the rasta reggae rhythms, her dreams have changed somehow
[Verse 4]
She wears a Red Sox cap to hide her baby dreads
The girl she was in New England is different now and dead
In all the local bars she flirts and tells the boys while they're talking
She's
From Boston
[Verse 5]
Her toes dig deep
And deeper in the sand
She's seduced by the sunsets and her new life at hand
[Verse 6]
She wears a Red Sox cap to hide her baby dreads
The girl she was in New England is different now and dead
In all the local bars she flirts and tells the boys while they're talking
She's
From Boston
[Verse 7]
She wears a Red Sox cap
To hide her baby dreads
From Boston
She came to this island from Boston
