Take me down into the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Whoa, won't ya take me home?
Take me down into the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Won't ya 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, buy me somethin' to eat
I'll pay you at another time, take it to the end of the line
See ya
Rags to riches, or so they say, you gotta
Keep pushin' for the fortune and fame
You know it's all a gamble when it's just a game
You treat it like a capital crime, everybody's doing the time
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Won't ya take me home?
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Won't ya take me home?
Look out
Right in the chair of the city gas chamber
Why I'm here, I can't quite remember
Surgeon general says it's hazardous to breathe
Have another cigarette but
I can't stay, tell me who you're gonna believe
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Won't ya take me home?
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Won't ya take me home?
Oh-oh, whoa-whoa, yeah
So far away
So far away
So far away
So far away
Captain America's been torn apart
He's a court jester with a broken heart
He said, "Turn me around and take me back to the start"
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
Won't ya take me home?
Take me down to the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Won't ya take me home?
Set me down, take me down
Won't ya take me home?
Take me down to the paradise city
Won't ya take me home?
Take me
Take me, hey-ey
Take me, yeah
Oh-whoa
I wanna go, I wanna know
Won't ya take me home?
Baby
Plea-ooh
Way to go jus' then
Uh-uh
We're gonna settle things down a bit
Hey, Silas, what about, uh
("Civil War")
Your request is my command, homes
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Whoa, won't ya take me home?
Take me down into the paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Won't ya 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, buy me somethin' to eat
I'll pay you at another time, take it to the end of the line
See ya

Keep pushin' for the fortune and fame
You know it's all a gamble when it's just a game
You treat it like a capital crime, everybody's doing the time

Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Won't ya take me home?
