Philadelphia Lyrics

cried
Appalachians in my eyes
But we didn't care
My Walkman died
Seven strong; no wonder it took us so long to get to here
Sleepless, this tangle of arms and legs won't let me get no rest

Listen to the parents talk
It's getting hard to sit here while the parents talk
Running up and down the block
Sick of running up and down the block

They ask us, what's the rush?
We never did that much
We've been waiting for a long, long time

City streets
My uncle took the wheel and nearly killed us all
Court-side
My brothers laced up their pumps like they always do
Listen to the parents talk
It's getting hard to sit here while the parents talk
Running up and down the block
Sick of running up and down the block

They ask us, what's the rush?
We never did that much
We've been waiting for a long, long time
[x2]
Listen to the parents talk
It's getting hard to sit here while the parents talk
Listen to the parents talk
Sick of running up and down the block

They ask us, what's the rush?
We never did that much
We've been waiting for a long, long time
[x2]

We've been waiting for a long, long time
We've been waiting for a long time
