[Chorus]

Take me down to the Paradise City

Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty

Oh, won't you take me home? Yeah, yeah

Take me down to the Paradise City

Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty

Won't you take me home?

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 1]

Just an urchin livin' under the street, I'm a

Hard case that's tough to beat

I'm your charity case, buy me something to eat

I'll pay you at another time

Take it to the end of the line, see ya

[Verse 2]

Rags to riches, or so they say, you gotta

Keep pushin' for the fortune and fame

You know it, it's all a gamble when it's just a game

You treat it like a capital crime

Everybody's doing the time

[Chorus]

Take me down to the Paradise City

Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty

Won't you take me home?

Take me down to the Paradise City

Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty

Won't you take me home?

Look out

[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

Won't you take me home?

Take me down to the Paradise City

Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty

Won't you take me home? Oh yeah

[Guitar Solo]

[Bridge]

So far away

So far away

So far away

So far away

[Verse 4]

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 losin' my mind, "Are you blind?"

Seen it all a million times

[Chorus]

Take me down to the Paradise City

Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty

Won't you take me home?

Take me down to the Paradise City

Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty

Won't you take me home?

Take me down, spin me 'round

Won't you take me home?

Take me down to the Paradise City

Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty

Won't you take me home?

[Guitar Solo]

[Outro]

Ya take me home?

I wanna see how good it can be

Won't ya take me home?

Baby, please
