And I remind her of her father as he was back in the day
And she knows I can’t be with her but she loves me anyway
And I am driving into Boston town
And I am listening to the radio sound
And I am wondering if I did it right
The same old questions I ask every night
I’m gonna get down
I’m gonna rattle it out
I’m gonna bounce back
I’m gonna leave no doubt
'Cause I'm on a mission
And I'm working the ground
Back to the city
Of a small town
And I had work out in Chicago but I left it for the road
And I'm living out of my suitcase in the trunk where it is stowed
And I am coming into Storrow Drive
Watching springtime as it comes alive
I think I'll keep it as a souvenir
Sing it loud enough for you to hear
I’m gonna get down
I’m gonna rattle it out
I’m gonna bounce back
I’m gonna leave no doubt
'Cause I'm on a mission
And I'm working the ground
Back to the city
Of a small town
So it’s back to where I started, guess I knew I'd come around
Stay with family til I get my feet back on the ground
And I miss the barbecues out in the lawn
And summer swimming down at old mill pond
I even miss the icy winter winds
Sweet New England I am home again
I’m gonna get down
I’m gonna rattle it out
I’m gonna bounce back
I’m gonna leave no doubt
'Cause I'm on a mission
And I'm working the ground
Back to the city
Of a small town
