"Banned In Boston" lyrics - SAM THE SHAM AND THE PHARAOHS

Oww
Let me get up on the doctored up thunder ticket

I'm rollin' down the turnpike
For a night of Boston's town, yeah
I didn't please the boy's in blue
By the way I carried on

I'm goin' to San Francisco
My reputation's been saved, yeah
When Boston censored me
I knew I'd made the grade

'Cause I've been banned in Boston, baby
Yeah, you know how bad it can be
(Banned in Boston)

Yeah, well, I'm weird and bearded, baby
Wild and woolly, can't ya see?
(Banned in Boston)
Yeah, yeah

I've had 20 different landlords
In 20 different weeks, yeah
I'm proud to say that my best friends
Are Boston's biggest freaks

All the girls deep comin' around
They hear I'm so far out, yeah
Hangin' 'round and whisperin'
"Sammy, what's this all about?"

Well, I've been banned in Boston, baby
Yeah, you know how bad it can be
(Banned in Boston)

Yeah, well, I'm weird and bearded, baby
Wild and woolly, can't ya see?
(Banned in Boston)
C'mon baby, get on with me

Grrr, oh, oh

Your father, your mother, your brother don't like me
Your sister thinks I'm kinda cool, yeah
The only way I'll play your game
Is by breakin' one or two of your rules

I'm a literary genus
As you can plainly see, yeah
I wrote you simple lyrics sayin'
"Ain't you proud of me?"

Well, I've been banned in Boston, baby
Yeah, you know how bad it can be
(Banned in Boston)

Yeah, well, I'm weird and bearded, baby
Wild and woolly, can't ya see?
(Banned in Boston)

C'mon baby, get on
Don't forget the frame bucket
Now, ready to go? Rrr, oww
San Francisco, here we come
