Massachusetts is a song by the Bee Gees, written by Barry, Robin, and Maurice Gibb. It was one of the groups biggest hits, released in 1967. The song was written during a tour of the United States, at a time when the Gibbs longed to return to England, reflecting a sentiment of homesickness. Interestingly, none of the Gibb brothers had visited the state of Massachusetts prior to writing the song.
Feel I'm going back to Massachusetts Something's telling me I must go home And the lights all went down in Massachusetts The day I left her standing on her own
Try to hitch a ride to San Francisco Gotta do the things I wanna do And the lights all went down in Massachusetts They brought me back to see my way with you
Talk about the life in Massachusetts Speak about the people I have seen And the lights all went out in Massachusetts And Massachusetts is one place I have ... seen (break)
(I will remember Massachusetts) I will remember Massachusetts (I will remember Massachusetts) I will remember Massachusetts
