Paradise City Lyrics - Cypress Hill

Just an urchin living under the street 

I'm a hard case, real tough to beat 

I'm your charity case 

So buy me something to eat 

I'll pay you at another time 

Take it to the end of the line 

Rags to riches or so they say 

You got to keep pushing 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 their time 

Take me down 

To the Paradise City 

Where the grass is green 

And the girls are pretty 

Oh, won't you please take me home

Take me down 

To the paradise city 

Where the grass is green 

And the girls are pretty 

Take me home 

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 smoke another cigarette but I can't see 

Tell me who you're going to believe 

Take me down 

To the Paradise City 

Where the grass is green 

And the girls are pretty 

Take me home

Take me down 

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 Captain America's been torn apart 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 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 

Take me home 

Take me down 

To the Paradise City 

Where the grass is green 

And the girls are pretty 

Oh, won't you please take me home 

I want to go 

I want to know 

Oh, won't you please take me home 

I want to see 

Oh, look at me 

Oh, won't you please take me home 

Take me down 

To the Paradise city 

Where the grass is green 

And the girls are pretty 

Take me home 

Take me down 

To the Paradise City 

Where the grass is green 

And the girls are pretty 

Oh, won't you please take me home 

Take me down 

Beat me down 

Oh, won't you please take me home 

I want to see 

Oh, look at me 

Oh, won't you please take me home 

I want to see 

Boy, I'm going to be mean 

Oh, oh take me home 

Take me down 

To the Paradise City 

Where the grass is green 

And the girls are pretty 

Oh, won't you please take me home 

I want to go 

I want to know 

Oh, won't you please take me home 

Yeah, baby 

Yeah
