Originally from Appetite For Destruction Take me down
Just a urchin livin under the street
Ragz to richez or so they say
Take me down
Strapped in the chair of the city's gas chamber
Take me down
So far away
Captain America's been torn apart
Take me down
First played by New Band In Vegas 2001
To the paradise city
Where the grass is green
And the girls are pretty
Oh, won't you please take me home
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
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
To the paradise city
Where the grass is green
And the girls are pretty
Oh, won't you please take me home
Why I'm here I can't quite remember
The surgeon general says it's hazardous to breath
I'd have another cigarette but I can't see
Tell me who ya gonna believe
To the paradise city
Where the grass is green
And the girls are pretty
Oh, won't you please take me home
So far away
So far away
So far away
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'v seen it all a million times
To the paradise city
Where the grass is green
And the girls are pretty
Oh, won't you please take me home
