Damn it’s getting cold
I must be getting old
I remember when I use to embrace this weather
Not any more, let me put on a coat of goose feathers

“I like the bed I'm sleeping in
It's just like me, it's broken in
It's not old - just older
Like a favorite pair of torn blue jeans
This skin I'm in it's alright with me
It's not old - just older”

I’ll grab my car keys and we’ll be gone
Starting my baby up, let me put the heat on
You clicked in?
Not wearing your seat belt is a sin

“Tomorrow we can drive around this town
And let the cops chase us around
The past is gone but something might be found
To take it's place, hey jealousy
Hey jealousy, hey jealousy, hey jealousy”

So, what type of music do you like?
I want you to feel comfortable, not that we’re going on a hike
Ya, that’s cool
This is Aerosmith, the old school.

“It’s the same old story
Same old song and dance, my friend
It’s the same old story
Same old story
Same old song and dance”

So let me tell you a story about this neighborhood
When I was a kid, everything was good
I mean, we’d play sports
The drive ways were our basketball courts
The big back yard was for playing football and baseball
Played street hockey since it’s a dead end street, we had it all

“Oh, put me in, coach - I'm ready to play today
Put me in, coach - I'm ready to play today
Look at me, I can be center field”

We were ablivious to the older kids doing drugs
They minded themselves, they weren’t thugs
In fact, they showed this brother love
During the winter, they would help me across the snow banks, kind of

“We been dancing with Mr. Brownstone
He's been knocking
He won't leave me alone
No, no, no, he won't leave me alone”

It’s fall time, the leaves are changing colors
It’s nature at work, the multy colors are what I ador
Have you ever been to old Salem?
In October, it’s wicked fun

“If she floats than she is not
A witch like we had thought
A down payment on another
One at salem's lot”

They shut down streets
So everyone can go trick or treat
There are hundreds of thousands of people every year
Since I went to Salem state college for four years, I was there

“Into the great wide open
Under them skies of blue
Out in the great wide open
A rebel without a clue”

Even our sports teams
They were there in the beginning, do you see my theme?
Boston RedSox 1901
Boston Bruins 1924
Boston Celtics 1946
Boston Patriots 1960

“Tessie, 'Nuff Said McGreevy shouted
We're not here to mess around
Boston, you know we love you madly
Hear the crowd roar to your sound
Don't blame us if we ever doubt you
You know we couldn't live without you
Tessie, you are the only, only, only
Don't blame us if we ever doubt you
You know we couldn't live without you
Boston, you are the only, only, only
Don't blame us if we ever doubt you
You know we couldn't live without you
Red Sox, you are the only, only, only”

Massachusetts is ritch with history
How buildings have stood for 400 years to me is a mystory
Even in my own town, we have The Iron Works
They’ve been making nails since 1646,so I’m a dork
The battle of Lexington and Concord, the old North Church and the grave yard where Sam Adams’ rests
The Freedom Trail, Plymouth Rock, Paul Revere’s house, even Fenway Park, it’s the best

“Fortune, fame, mirror vain, gone insane
Fortune, fame, mirror vain, gone insane
But the memory remains”

Next time you’re around
We’ll go down town
Take a strole through Boston commons and have lunch at Quincy Market
We can go to Cheers but Sam, Norm and Cliff wont be the target
Maybe we can go on a duck tour
Museum of Science, New England Aquarium or the old South Meeting house, if you’re sure

“I want my city back
Back the way it used to be
I want it back the way it was”

I’m glad you called me on your way to your cousin
Haven’t seen you in a while, 4 years it must have been
I wish you could have stayed longer but I know you have to go
Tell your beautiful wife I said HI, I’ll see you later bro

“It's something unpredictable
but in the end it's right.
I hope you had the time of your life.”
