Philadelphia
On the streets of Philly
The streets of Philly
On the streets of Philly
The streets of Philly
On the streets of Philly
The streets of Philly
Well, I hope they don't kill me
On the streets of Philly, Philly, Philly
A double decker Megabus
Manhattan in my sights
I only had the one chance
I had to get it right
A pill to pop my will could stop
From chemical destruct
My time is running out
I better get some luck
A heaven screams some better things
I'm tempted that I lost
I hopped the fence to reek offense
Instead of getting caught
And then I left school
Instead of getting taught
My heart had got a lot out
Oh, I better take a walk
Through Philly
The streets of Philly
On the streets of Philly
The streets of Philly, Philly, Philly
On the streets of Philly
The streets of Philly
Well, I hope they don't kill me
On the streets of Philly, Philly, Philly
A junkie wants a better life
A cop just wants to rule
I could never get it right
So I dropped out of school
In life, it's hard to get advice
For work that's hard to do
I'll leave and find a better life
'Til everyone's confused
Come on take a look at me
And tell me what you see
And once you tell me everything
That I would never be
I'll take a car or train or bus
Or ship across the sea
And do it all in front of you
And smile
I'll be leaving Philly
I'm leaving Philly
All the streets of Philly
The streets of Philly, Philly, Philly
On the streets of Philly
The streets of Philly
Well, I hope they don't kill me, tonight
On the streets of Philly, Philly, Philly
The streets of Philly
On the streets of Philly
The streets of Philly
On the streets of Philly
The streets of Philly
Well, I hope they don't kill me
On the streets of Philly, Philly, Philly
A double decker Megabus
Manhattan in my sights
I only had the one chance
I had to get it right
A pill to pop my will could stop
From chemical destruct
My time is running out
I better get some luck
A heaven screams some better things
I'm tempted that I lost
I hopped the fence to reek offense
Instead of getting caught
And then I left school
Instead of getting taught
My heart had got a lot out
Oh, I better take a walk
Through Philly
The streets of Philly
On the streets of Philly
The streets of Philly, Philly, Philly
On the streets of Philly
The streets of Philly
Well, I hope they don't kill me
On the streets of Philly, Philly, Philly
A junkie wants a better life
A cop just wants to rule
I could never get it right
So I dropped out of school
In life, it's hard to get advice
For work that's hard to do
I'll leave and find a better life
'Til everyone's confused
Come on take a look at me
And tell me what you see
And once you tell me everything
That I would never be
I'll take a car or train or bus
Or ship across the sea
And do it all in front of you
And smile
I'll be leaving Philly
I'm leaving Philly
All the streets of Philly
The streets of Philly, Philly, Philly
On the streets of Philly
The streets of Philly
Well, I hope they don't kill me, tonight
On the streets of Philly, Philly, Philly
