About

Swing just brought an old melody of mine back to life with a bright new chart about how well Massachusetts is doing. Horns popped, rhythm locked in, and the whole tune found its stride. “Massachusetts Lives” is out now.

Lyrics

Chorus

Massachusetts lives, you can hear it in the air

From the riverside to the skyline, pride’s everywhere

With horns popped, feet tapping, this story’s bona fide

Rhythm locked in, yeah, the Bay State found its stride

Post-Chorus

Oh oh oh, the Bay State found its stride

Oh oh oh, shining far and wide

Verse 2

From the Berkshires to the shore, opportunities are true

Fields of learning, growing strong, and the future’s coming through

Communities together, sharing kindness side by side

You can feel the spirit, and we’re taking it in stride

Pre-Chorus

Raise a glass to progress across every avenue

There’s music in each city, hope is breaking through

Chorus

Massachusetts lives, you can hear it in the air

From the riverside to the skyline, pride’s everywhere

With horns popped, feet tapping, this story’s bona fide

Rhythm locked in, yeah, the Bay State found its stride

Post-Chorus

Oh oh oh, the Bay State found its stride

Oh oh oh, shining far and wide
