I'd never see the coast again, and I'd never go east of Boston

The ocean would show a shade of blue

The lighthouse would illuminate the good feelings I chose to

Stray away from just to make some run for you

Luckily, I never took you to Cape Cod, oh my God

Luckily, I never took you to Cape Cod

'Cause I'd never get it back (it'd be yours)

You would've torn it right in half (that's for sure)

The only stable ground I have (it'd be yours)

It would've washed away in the wake you caused

Thank God I've still got Cape Cod

Ooh (thank God I've still got Cape Cod)

Ooh (thank God I've still got Cape Cod)

It would've been the death of me, and you would've gotten everythin'

My harbor would be tarnished, you would've gotten what you wanted

But lucky for me and my sixth sense

Oh, you got Springfield, I got what's left

Now I'll cleanse the dunes that you would've haunted

Luckily, I never took you to Cape Cod, oh my God

Luckily, I never took you to Cape Cod

'Cause I'd never get it back (it'd be yours)

You would've torn it right in half (that's for sure)

The only stable ground I have (it'd be yours)

It would've washed away in the wake you caused

Thank God I've still got Cape Cod

Ooh (thank God I've still got Cape Cod)

Ooh (thank God I've still got Cape Cod)

I still have it, it's still mine

The best thing I ever did was never share that coastline

Forever in my name, now when I'm on vacation

My mind won't jump to 17 by association

Luckily, I never took you to Cape Cod, oh my God

Luckily, I never took you to Cape Cod, oh my God

Luckily, I never took you to Cape Cod, oh my God

Luckily, I never took you to Cape Cod

'Cause I'd never get it back (it'd be yours)

You would've torn it right in half (that's for sure)

The only stable ground I have (it'd be yours)

Would've washed away in the wake you caused

Thank God I've still got Cape Cod

Thank God I've still got Cape Cod
