I was bruised and battered and I couldn´t tell
What I felt
I was unrecognizable to myself
I saw my reflection in a window I didn´t know
My own face
Oh brother are you gonna leave me
Wastin´away
On the streets of philadelphia

(na na-na na nana nana)

I walked the avenue till my legs felt like stone
I heard the voices of friends vanished and gone
At night I could hear the blood in my veins
Just as Black and whispering as the rain
On the streets of philadelphia

(na na-na na nana nana)

Ain´t no angel gonna greet me
It´s just you and I my friend
And my clothes dont fit me no more
I walked a thousand miles
Just to slip the skin

The night has fallen, I´m lyin' awake
I can feel myself fading away
So receive me brother with your faithless kiss
Or will we leave each other alone like this
On the streets of philadelphia

(na na-na na nana nana)
