City By The Sea

I wanna come home to a dog that wags his tail
I wanna come home to a ship that doesn't sail
I wanna come home and I wanna go to work
I wanna come home and be just another jerk

I wanna be there for the start of every season
Head back to Fenway, yeah, it seems like a good reason
To go home to friends and family, the best thing I ever did
I may be far away, but I'm still a hometown kid

So take me back to where I'm from
Where I'm hated, where I'm loved
Where they welcome me and raised me
To be the man that I've become
Each time I go away
I wish to God that I could stay
Here with you all every day
Now let that broken record play

I wanna be back where people tell it like it is
Everyone remembers, but nobody forgives
I wanna be home by the ocean so I can smell the sea
I wanna be around a bunch of salty knuckleheads like you and me

So take me back to where I'm from
Where I'm hated, where I'm loved
Where they welcome me and raised me
To be the man that I've become
Each time I go away
I wish to God that I could stay
Here with you all every day
Now let that broken record play

(Whooo!)
(Whooo!)

Going home to friends and family
The best thing I ever did
I may be far away
But I'm still a Boston kid

So take me back to where I'm from
Where I'm hated, where I'm loved
Where they welcome me and raised me
To be the man that I've become
Each time I go away
I wish to God that I could stay
Here with you all every day
Now let that broken record play

Each time I go away
I wish to God that I could stay
Here with you all every day
Now let that broken record play
