[00:15.54]Across the old Delaware I fell apart[00:20.30]In the city of brotherly love[00:23.77]And the winter bit hard through the holes in my jacket[00:28.91]And my thoughts lean toward giving up[00:32.48]See, I’ve been a wanderer and it’s been some time[00:37.74]Since I’ve found somewhere I could belong[00:41.34]‘Til a cold wind on Walnut Street whistled in the trees[00:46.40]And it sounded to me like a song[00:49.88]Said: “when you’re down and you’re out[00:55.70]And don’t remember the feeling of joy[00:59.95]You can lean on me, brother,[01:02.94]I won’t let you fall[01:05.90]Not while I’m a Philadelphia boy[01:09.90]Oh Lord, not while I’m a Philadelphia boy”[01:25.75]I took a walk through the city[01:28.89]I bumped shoulders with strangers[01:32.22]The sinners, the saints and the thieves[01:36.42]I looked in faces befitting a cynical age[01:41.36]But we so desperately want to believe[01:44.89]And when I needed a doctor and a brother and a friend[01:50.04]Turn out I wasn’t so far from my home[01:53.94]‘Cause sweet Philadelphia opened her arms[01:58.74]Took me in like I was one of her own[02:02.32]Said: “when you’re down and you’re out[02:07.82]And don’t remember the feeling of joy[02:12.02]You can lean on me, brother,[02:15.02]I won’t let you fall[02:17.92]Not while I’m a Philadelphia boy[02:22.02]Oh Lord, not while I’m a Philadelphia boy”[02:26.17]Just a rounder in need of a home[02:31.7]And a brother who won’t let me go[02:34.90]Benny Franklin’s an old friend you know[02:39.90]It’s not just some face on a hundred dollar bill[02:43.70]He’s my old Philadelphia boy[02:47.45]Oh Lord, he’s a good old Philadelphia boy[02:59.0]No I wasn’t raised Christian[03:02.0]Oh but I was raised good[03:05.60]I never looked to no heavens above[03:10.70]But my wretched old soul is in safe hands tonight[03:15.60]In the city of brotherly love[03:19.0]So I’ll be out for a slice at Lorenzo’s tonight[03:24.70]With a poker chip tight in my hand[03:28.0]If you need a ride I’ll be parked right outside[03:33.20]If you need a brother – well I’m your man[03:37.0]‘Cause when you’re down and you’re out[03:42.50]And don’t remember the feeling of joy[03:46.70]You can lean on me, brother,[03:49.70]I won’t let you fall[03:52.70]Not while I’m a Philadelphia boy[03:56.70]Oh Lord, not while I’m a Philadelphia boy[04:00.60]Oh Lord, not while I’m a Philadelphia boy
