The birthplace of our nation is Boston, so they say
                                        C              G
They try to keep it as it was, but it's changing every day

A big ball in Boston, a big ball in town

A big ball in Boston, I'm gonna get on down

We met a chap from Harvard, very slim and pale
                                  C                       G
Last time that we saw him, he was dancing with a cat from Yale

The Red Coats, they were comin', their cloth was made of tweed
                                               C             G
Some say their shirts were button down, the tradition is Ivy League
[Chorus]
                        C           G
A big ball in Boston, a big ball in town
