Chris Trapper Boston Girl song lyrics

From Nashville to Asheville to North Carolina

I searched far and wide to see if I could find

A woman I could call my own

so I could buy her a ring and build her a home

But I always ended up by myself

With the blues in my heart and my love on the shelf

So I went from Chicago to Detroit, Michigan

but I left the singles bar thinking I'd never have a wish again

and off to Minneapolis and maybe St. Paul

The girls there have an accent I don't understand at all

I'm telling you boys, I've been across the world

if you want to fall in love go find a Boston Girl

Well, when I got to L.A. things couldn't have been worse

I was kissing with a girl and her implant burst

I didn't want a porn star or an actress wannabe

So I moved to San Francisco, but my she was a he

And oh woe is me off to Salt Lake City, Utah

where if you look at a girl, you're breaking the law

I even had a date with a psycho in Seattle

where picking the restaurant and the movie was a battle

And in Phoenix, Arizona I had a candlelight dinner

but she ate with her hands and wiped her face with her fingers

I'm telling you boys, I've been across the world

I want an elegant, intelligent Boston Girl

Well, Albany's so fun I spent a month there one day

but Buffalo is cool so I can't stay away

In Philly and Washington and Atlantic City

I was searching and sulking until it finally hit me

that maybe I should end my year long trip

and forget about the dream of a relationship

Connect to the Mass Pike at I-95

Singing George Jones the whole way that I drive

Couldn't tell if I was glad or not to be back home

with three new gray hairs and two old tires blow

So exhausted from my trip around the world

the last thing on my mind was a Boston Girl

But you see Boston Girls know how to deal with the traffic

and Boston Girls don't have attitude 'cause they have it

They can be dressed up or they can be dressed down

They know just what to do when their man's in town

So I was picking the weeds in my lonely backyard

suddenly I turned around to hear a lawnmower start

It was a beautiful brunette who said "Get out of my way"

I said "Whose lawn is this anyway?"

It can be yours and mine if we work real hard

because the best kind of love is in your own backyard

So for love done light take a trip around the world

for a job done right go find a Boston Girl-->
