Intro: I'm gonna tell you a story I'm gonna tell you about my town I'm gonna tell you a big fat story, baby Aw, it's all about my town Yeah, down by the river Down by the banks of the river Charles (Aw, that's what's happenin' baby) That's where you'll find me Along with lovers, muggers, and thieves (Aw, but they're cool people) Well I love that dirty water Oh, Boston, you're my home (Oh, you're the number one place) Frustrated women (I mean they're frustrated) Have to be in by twelve o'clock (oh, that's a shame) But I'm wishin' and a-hopin', oh That just once those doors weren't locked (I like to take time with my baby to walk around) Well I love that dirty water Oh, Boston, you're my home (oh, yeah) 'Cause I love that dirty water (Repeat and Fade)
