Eric Hutchinson - King Of Philadelphia Lyrics

Eric Hutchinson Lyrics

"King Of Philadelphia"
(feat. Melanie Nyema)

The Center City sun
Has got me in its spell
The voices I outrun
Are ringing like a bell
They're sayin'

Back home I can get myself arrested
Nobody seems to give a damn
Down here every day I'd be front page news
And all the Phillies will know who I am

Oh New York - I am a shadow
New York - I'm the short straw
Unpack my bags 'cause I'm staying here
I'm the king of Philadelphia

The rumble of the streets
It fits me like a glove
And pouring down on me
Is a brotherly love

Down here opportunity is knocking
I can buy like anything I want
All day parking for my limousine
And a seat at any restaurant

Oh New York - I am a shadow
New York - I'm the short straw
Unpack my bags 'cause I'm staying here
I'm the king of Philadelphia
New York - I'm second fiddle
New York - I'm bourgeouis
Unpack my bags 'cause I'm staying here
I'm the king of Philadelphia

Philly! Philly!
Phila-Philadelphia!
Philly! Philly!
I'm the king of Philadelphia!

New York, no one can afford you
All my friends have moved away
I would love to stay forever
Will you please cut me a break

New York, no one can afford you
All my friends have moved away
I would love to stay forever
Will you please cut me a break

Cut me a break
Cut me a break

New York - I am a shadow
New York - I'm the short straw
Unpack my bags 'cause I'm staying here
I'm the king of Philadelphia

Philly! Philly!
Phila-Philadelphia!
Philly! Philly!
I'm the king of Philadelphia!
I'm the king of Philadelphia!
I'm the king of Philadelphia!
I'm the king of Philadelphia!
