lyrics

The trains don't run no more in Boston
I can't get past Kenmore to Newton
I'm on my way to my baby's house
I can't go North I can't go South
Because the train's don't run no more in Boston

I bought twelve roses, a suit and tie
And maybe, my baby, you'll wonder why
I laid down dollars on a diamond ring
Honey, there's just one thing

I'm halfway to your door
then you won't have to wait no more
But the trains don't run no more in Boston

I bought twelve roses, a suit and tie
And maybe, my baby, you'll wonder why
I laid down dollars on a diamond ring
Honey, there's just one thing

The trains don't run no more in Boston
I can't get past Kenmore to Newton
I've never been the type of man to be behind with a wedding band
but the trains don't run no more in Boston
