Paradise

Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home (oh, won’t you, please, take me home?)
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home (oh, won’t you, please, take me home?)
Just an urchin living under the street
I’m a hard case that’s tough to beat
I’m your charity case so buy me something to eat
I’ll pay you at another time
Take it to the end of the line
Rags to riches or so, they say
You gotta keep pushing for the fortune and fame
You know it’s, it’s all a gamble when it’s just a game
You treat it like a capital crime
Everybody’s doing their time
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won’t you, please, take me home, yeah, yeah?
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home
Strapped in the chair of the city’s gas chamber
Why I’m here, I can’t quite remember
The surgeon general says it’s hazardous to breathe
I’d have another cigarette, but I can’t see
Tell me who ya gonna believe
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home, yeah, yeah
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won’t you, please, take me home, yeah?
So far away, so far away
So far away, so far away
Captain America’s been torn apart
Now he’s a court jester with a broken heart
He said, turn me around and take me back to the start
I must be losing my mind, are you blind?
I’ve seen it all a million times
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home, yeah, yeah!
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won’t you, please, take me home?
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home, yeah, yeah!
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won’t you, please, take me home, home
Oh, I want to go, I want to know
Oh, won’t you, please, take me home?
I want to see how good it can be
Oh, won’t you, please, take me home?
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Take me home
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won’t you, please, take me home?
Take me down, take me down
Oh, won’t you, please, take me home?
I want to see how good it can be
Oh, won’t you, please, take me home?
I want to see how good it can be
Oh, oh, take me home
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Oh, won’t you, please, take me home?
I want to know, I want to know
Oh, won’t you, please, take me home?
Yeah, baby!
