Lyrics
It's Heaven in Hull
It's dark in Duxbury, moving through the woods at night
The trees are lined up row by row
The trees keep out the evening light
It's muddy in Marshfield or so I heard it said
Your car could get stuck on the side of the road
And take a long time before it gets towed
It's slick in Scituate on a January night
Be careful when you cross the bridge
Your car will slip and slide
Its cold in Cohasset as you are moving up the shore
Crank the defrost in your car
Play the radio real hot
High up in Hingham up near the Weymouth line
They're lined up to stop the railroad line
But they're building the damn thing anyway,
Noise and smoke, noise and smoke....
But it's heaven in Hull, it's heaven in Hull
Grab a beer, run down to the beach,
Watch the waves roll by, watch the waves roll by,
Grab a beer...
