Paroles de The Sunny Side Of The Street

Seen the carnival at Rome

Had the women I had the booze

All I can remember now
Is little kids without no shoes

So I saw that train

And I got on it

With a heartful of hate

And a lust for vomit

Now I'm walking on the sunnyside of the street



Stepped over bodies in Bombay

Tried to make it to the U.S.A.

Ended up in Nepal
I was going to stay

Right where I am, on the sunnyside of the street



Been in a palace, been in a jail

I just don't want to be reborn a snail

Just want to spend eternity

Right where I am, on the sunnyside of the street



As my mother wept it was then I swore

To take my life as I would a whore

I know I'm better than before

I will not be reconstructed

Just wanna stay right here

On the sunnyside of the street
