Massachusetts (Remastered)
words and music by
Arlo Guthrie
Like a dream in the night
As the snow settles white
Theres a fire burning bright
In Massachusetts
And theres a house upon a hill
That keeps us from the chill
And by the grace of
God We will be in
Massachusetts
CHORUS: You can tell me about the times you spent
In the Rockies and on the plains,
Please dont think that
Im the last to say
That there aint lots of other places
In this world that still remain
Beautiful and unchanged
But theyre just not the same
The sun comes up to meet the dawn
And theres a day that must go on
Theres another night thats gone
In Massachusetts
And I could spend all of my days
And remain each day amazed
At the way each day is phrased
In Massachusetts
CHORUS Now if you could only see
I know you would agree
There aint nowhere else to be
Like Massachusetts
And theres a house upon a hill
That keeps us from the chill
And by the grace of
God We will be in
Massachusetts
Come on tell me about the time you spent
In the Rockies and on the plains
And please dont think that
Im the last to say
That there aint lots of other places
In this world that still remain
Beautiful and unchanged
But theyre just not the same as
Massachusetts
