Walter Becker - The Boston Rag lyrics

Any news was good news And the feelin' was bad at home I was out of mind and you were on the phone Lonnie was the kingpin Back in nineteen sixty-five I was singing this song when Lonnie came alive [Chorus] Bring back the Boston rag Tell all your buddies that it ain't no drag Bring back the Boston rag You were Lady Bayside There was nothing that I could do So I pointed my car down seventh avenue Lonnie swept the playroom Then he swallowed up all he found It was forty-eight hours till Lonnie came around [Chorus] Bring back the Boston rag Tell all your buddies that it ain't no drag Bring back the Boston rag
