You lived on Vine Street 

I lived at home 

The music was all that we had of our own 

No satisfaction, no dance in my car 

But I had the keys to the world in my beat up guitar 



With my beat up guitar 

You and I will ride away 

From the town that rocked the nation 

Philadelphia, PA 



Kensington Station, we sat on the tracks 

I wrote you a song 

The one you knew it was flat 

You laughed when they told me 

You won't get too far 

If you spend the rest of your life with that beat up guitar 



With my beat up guitar 

You and I will ride away 

From the town that rocked the nation 

Philadelphia, PA 



And I may leave this place tomorrow 

But my soul is here to stay 

In the town that rocked the nation 

Philadelphia, PA 



You can't get to Heaven on the Frankford El 

You can't get to Heaven on the Frankford El

You can't get to Heaven on the Frankford El

You can't get to Heaven on the Frankford El

Oh you can't get to Heaven on the Frankford El

Cause the Frankford El goes straight to Frankford 

It's just another stop til I find my destination 



With my beat up guitar 

You and I will ride away 

From the town that rocked the nation 

Philadelphia, PA 



And with that beat up guitar 

We're coming home again someday 

To the town that rocked the nation 

Philadelphia, PA 



And I may leave this place tomorrow 

But my soul is here to stay 

In the town that rocked the nation 

Philadelphia, PA 



In the town that rocked the nation 

Philadelphia, PA 



Philadelphia, PA
