My life's been all one happy rhyme
Right here in Lowell -- just all the time.
I've never longed to cross the foam,
Was satisfied to stay at home.
But now I'm goin' twelve miles away,
'Spec I'll be down most every day.
The jitney man goes back and forth
I'll come at ten -- at five ride north.
Bless be the tie that binds us two,
I like that jitney route -- don't you?
Of all the places I have found
This little Lowell was "Holy Ground."
Of all the friends that I have met
My Lowell friends are the "bestest yet."
So when you want a bit of rhyme
Call me -- Ill come just any time.
No matter where 'bouts I may roam,
Just call up -- 'n Ill come home.
