Mother / Paradise City (Live In Las Vegas, Thomas & Mack Center - January 25, 1992)
Hey baby
Momma showed up in the wall
Hey baby
Momma showed up in the wall
You take me down to the Paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Won't you take me home?
Take me down to the Paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Won't you take me home?, look out
Just an urchin living under the street, I'm a
Hard case that's 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 gotta
Keep pushing for the fortune and fame
You know it's, it's all a gamble when it's just a game
You treat it like a capital crime, everybody's doing the time
Take me down to the Paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Won't you take me home?
Take me down to the Paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Won't you take me home?, look out
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 have another cigarette
But I can't see, tell me who you're gonna believe
Take me down to the Paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Won't you take me home?
Take me down to the Paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Won't you take me home?, oh yeah
Take me down to the Paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Won't you take me home?
Take me down to the Paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Won't you take me home?
Take me home, take me home
Take me down to the Paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Won't you take me home?
Momma showed up in the wall
Hey baby
Momma showed up in the wall
You take me down to the Paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Won't you take me home?
Take me down to the Paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Won't you take me home?, look out
Just an urchin living under the street, I'm a
Hard case that's 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 gotta
Keep pushing for the fortune and fame
You know it's, it's all a gamble when it's just a game
You treat it like a capital crime, everybody's doing the time
Take me down to the Paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Won't you take me home?
Take me down to the Paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Won't you take me home?, look out
Strapped in the chair of the city's gas chamber
Why I'm here, I can't quite remember

Take me down to the Paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Won't you take me home?
Take me down to the Paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Won't you take me home?, oh yeah
Take me down to the Paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Won't you take me home?
Take me down to the Paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Won't you take me home?
Take me home, take me home
Take me down to the Paradise city
Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty
Won't you take me home?
