Текст песни: Philly (Widescreen) (Songs That Sound Like Movies: The Complete Epic Recordings 2018)

Momma, you came from northern Tennessee
Pappa, you said the country's no good for me
You had so much to gain, ya moved on to Pennsylvania lights
Philly, you were the town where I was born
Philly, you’re where I end up, cotton coat torn
So much for making millions
Seems like I've seen a billion nights

Oh, but Philly, you've been the friend I never knew
Philly, your brother love was always true
Philly, you’ve been beside me bright or blue

Brother, pushing a hack, you'll never win
Sister, you spread your life a little too thin
I had no time for grievin'
Too hard just breakin' even then
Philly, dudes from New York don't know your face
Don't need nobody else, we got our own place
Maybe it's down to earth
At least we know what we're worth, amen

Oh, and Philly, you’ve been the friend I never knew
Philly, your brother love was always true
Philly, you’ve been beside me bright or blue

So much for making millions
Seems like I've seen a billion nights
Oh, and Philly, you’ve been the friend I never knew
Philly, your brother love was always true
Philly, you've been beside me, bright or blue

Philly, Philly…
