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
