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
Oh, won't you please take me home
Just a' urchin livin' under the street
I'm a hard case that's tough to beat
I'm your charity case
So buy me somethin' to eat
I'll pay you at another time
Take it to the end of the line
Ragz to richez or so they say
Ya gotta-keep pushin' 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 doin' 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
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 you're 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 losin' 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
Home
I wanna go
I wanna go
Oh, won't you please take me home
I wanna 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
Lead me 'round
Oh, won't you please take me home
I wanna see what a woman can be
Oh, won't you please take me home
I wanna see what a woman 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 wanna go
I wanna know
Oh, won't you please take me home
