Orthodox Christians with presents for Orthodox Christmas where delayed Traffic was backed up to nearly East Boston as of around 5:30 a.m.
It’s early morning, the sun’s shining bright,
In the Sumner Tunnel, there’s a curious sight,
A big rig truck, oh it’s making a stand,
Too tall for the tunnel, it’s causing a jam.
Orthodox Christmas, presents in tow,
But the traffic's stuck, and moving too slow.
With a cheer and a smile, can you feel that beat?
We’ll dance through this waiting, on the bustling street.

[Chorus]
Oh, I think I can, I know I can,
Reversing through the tunnel, let’s start a new plan.
From Logan to Boston, we’re on the way,
With festive cheer on this holiday!

[Verse 2]
The sound of laughter echoes through the lane,
While Massachusetts State Police ease the strain.
Traffic's backed up, but who needs to rush?
We’ll celebrate Christmas with a joyful hush.
The river’s flowing, the harbor shines bright,
Christmas in Boston feels just right tonight.
So bring on the gifts and the love we share,
As we dance through the traffic without a care.

[Chorus]
Oh, I think I can, I know I can,
Reversing through the tunnel, let’s start a new plan.
From Logan to Boston, we’re on the way,
With festive cheer on this holiday!

[Bridge]
Back and forth we sway, like the waves on the sea,
With every moment, together we’ll be.
Under the stars, with the spirit so bright,
Orthodox Christmas, we’re dancing tonight.

[Chorus]
Oh, I think I can, I know I can,
Reversing through the tunnel, let’s start a new plan.
From Logan to Boston, we’re on the way,
With festive cheer on this holiday!

[Outro]
So raise up your voice, let’s fill the air,
In the Sumner Tunnel, with love that we share.
Traffic might stop, but our spirits won’t sway,
Together we celebrate a Christmas today!
