The Boston Rag

Any news was good news

And the feelin' was bad at home

I was out of mind and you were on the phoneLonnie was the kingpin

Back in nineteen sixty-five

I was singing this song when Lonnie came aliveBring back the Boston rag

Tell all your buddies that it ain't no drag

Bring back the Boston ragYou were lady bay side

There was nothing that I could do

So I pointed my car down seventh avenueLonnie swept the playroom

Then he swallowed up all he found

It was forty-eight hours till Lonnie came aroundBring back the Boston rag

Tell all your buddies that it ain't no drag

Bring back the Boston rag
