Guns N Roses - Paradise City lyrics
Take me down to the Paradise City.
Where the grass is green.
And the girls are pretty.
Take me home.
[I want you please take me home.] x2
Verse 1
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.
Verse 2
Ragz to richez or so they say.
Ya gotta-keep pushin'.
For the fortune and fame.
It's all a gamble.
When it's just a game.
Ya treat it like a capital crime.
Everybody's doin' their time.
Chorus
Take me down to the Paradise City.
Where the grass is green.
And the girls are pretty.
Take me home.x1
[I want you please take me home.]x1
Verse 3
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.
Chorus
Take me down to the Paradise City.
Where the grass is green.
And the girls are pretty.
Take me home.x1
[I want you please take me home.]x1
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.
Chorus
Take me down to the Paradise City.
Where the grass is green.
And the girls are pretty.x4
Take me home.x2
[I want you please take me home.]x2
I wanna go.
I wanna go.
I want you please take me home.
I wanna see.
You mean to me.
I want you please take me home.
Chorus
Take me down to the Paradise City.
Where the grass is green.
And the girls are pretty.
Take me home.x1
[I want you please take me home.]x1
