I was born in Green Bay Grew up in VA I moved out to LA And for now I'm gonna stay But if you ask me where I'm from Boston I don't have an accent And I no longer pay rent But I met all my best friends In the hub of the universe I don't need a visa (Prove it) And I don't need a season (Prove it) I consider it treason To judge someone by their city of birth I was born in Green Bay Raised up in VA Now I live in LA And I think I just might stay But if you ask me where I'm from Boston (Ooh) Boston (Ooh) Boston (Ooh) Boston (Ooh) Boston I a-m F-r-o-m B-o-s-t-o-n (Boston) I can't help where the wind blows From Chicago to Tokyo [Incomprehensible] good shows and bad shows And kept stumbling down the road But every time she's been back here (Prove it) I've recorded this song here
(Prove it) And you guys are singin' along here If that ain't proof then I don't know I was born in Green Bay Raised up in VA And now I live in LA And if she's good to me, I'll stay But if you ask me where I'm from Boston (Ooh) Boston (Ooh) Boston (Ooh) Boston (Ooh) Boston I a-m F-r-o-m B-o-s-t-o-n (Boston) Nobody really knows if they will See another day So if I end up dead in the morning Someone say this at my grave He was born in Green Bay And raised up in VA Then he moved to LA But the reason why we're here today Is to say goodbye to a man Who truly knew where he was from And that's when I leap from the casket And scream at the top of my lungs Boston (Ooh) Boston (Ooh) Boston (Ooh) Boston (Ooh) Boston I a-m F-r-o-m B-o-s-t-o-n (Boston)
