Текст песни Philly - Rupert Holmes

Mama, you came from northern Tennessee
Papa, you said the country's no good for me
You had so much to gain, you moved on to Pennsylvania lights
Philly (Philly), you were the town where I was born
Philly (Philly) you're where I end up, cotton coat torn
So much for making millions
Seems like I've seen a billion nights

Oh, but Philly, you've been the friend I never knew
Philly, your brother love was always true
Philly, you've been beside me bright or blue

Brother (Philly), pushing a hack, you'll never win
Sister (Philly), you spread your life a little too thin
I had no time for grievin'
Too hard just breakin' even then

Philly, dudes from New York don't know your face
Don't need nobody else, we got our own place
Maybe it's down to earth
At least we know what we're worth, amen (amen)

Oh, and Philly, you've been the friend I never knew
Philly, your brother love was always true
Philly, you've been beside me bright or blue

So much for making millions
Seems like I've seen a billion nights

Oh, and Philly, you've been the friend I never knew
Philly, your brother love was always true
Philly, you've been beside me bright or blue

Philly, Philly
Philly, Philly
