M I C K E Y M O U S E Well, it's a big ball in Boston, a big ball in town A big ball in Boston, I'm gonna get on down Verse The Red Coats, they were comin', their cloth was made of tweed Some say their shirts were button down, the tradition is Ivy League A big ball in Boston, a big ball in town A big ball in Boston, I'm gonna get on down Instrumental Verse The folks who come from Boston are said to be quite dated So whadda ya have to say, my friend?
