"Please come to Boston
for the springtime
I'm staying here with some friends
and they've got lots of room
You can sell your paintings
on the sidewalk
By a cafe were I hope
to be working soon
Please come to Boston
She said "No,
won't you come home to me."
She said "Ramblin' boy,
won't ya settle down?
Boston ain't your kinda town
There ain't no gold and
there ain't nobody like me
I'm the number one fan
of a man from Tennessee"
Please come to Denver
where the snow falls
We'll move up into the mountains
so high that we can't be found
and throw "I love you"
echoes down the canyon
And we'll lie awake at night
'til they come back around
Please come to Denver
She said "No,
Baby you come home to me."
She said "Ramblin' boy,
why don't ya settle down?
Denver ain't your kinda town
There ain't no gold and there
ain't nobody like me
I'm the number one fan
of the man from Tennessee"
Please come to L.A.,
we'll live forever
The California life alone
is just too hard to bear
We'll live in a house that
looks out over the ocean
And we'll see stars that
fell from the sky,
livin' up on the hill
Please come to L.A.
She said "No,
Baby you come home to me."
She said "Hey ramblin' boy,
why don't ya settle down?
L.A. ain't your kinda town
There ain't no gold and
there ain't nobody like me
I'm the number one fan
of the man from Tennessee"
Please come to Boston
for the springtime
Please come to Boston
Won't you please come to Boston
Won't you please come home to me
Won't you please come to Denver
Won't you please come to me
Won't you please come back to your family
Won't you please come to L.A.
Won't you please come to Denver
where the snow falls"
