I love that boy and he is my friend
I see him going down the long hall
I love that boy and he is my friend
I wave to him from very far off

He goes uphill
I wish that I could follow after him
He goes uphill
Please let him be safe there, across the way
I love that boy, I say
I love him all the day

I love that boy and he is my friend
We're driving through the state of Maryland
I love that boy and he is my friend
I love to see him sleeping in back

He goes uphill
I wish that I could follow after him
He goes uphill
He dreams a city street a hundred ways
I love that boy, I say
I love him all the day

And I'm standing up under the trees
I'm cheering every day
I love that boy, I say
