Story behind the song
The phrase 'Lost in Boston' was irresistable. Hope this makes you think about visiting New England
Lyrics
Lost in Boston
Arnie Davidson ASCAP/Helen Canter
I want to get lost in Boston
I want to see who I come across there
I want to roam in the home, of the bean and the cod
And dine on some Chinese fare
I want to meet you at the Commons
Because I really got the Newbury Street blues
I want to shout with glee
One if by land and two if by sea
As I pass familiar views
Boston Massachusetts, lost in Boston, missing you
Boston Massachusetts, it’s all I want to do.
I want to get lost in Boston
‘cause I’m yearning for Harvard Square
I want to get in gear like Paul Revere
and relive the hist’ry that’s there
I want to fly back to Logan
A stop at Copley Plaza’s a must
I’m lonesome for BU, as well as the Pru
And I must hear the Pops or I’ll probably, I’ll probably bust CH
I want to get lost in Boston
See the Celts and the Bruins again
We’ll all have a ball at Faneuil Hall, and catch up with the Sox at the Fenn
So if you find me in Boston
Down at Durgin Park or a pub
Don’t ask me to go,
I just got here you know
And I’m planning to stay in the hub, in this town, called….CH
