I've seen the carnival at Rome
I had the women I had the booze
All I can remember now
Is little kids without no shoes
So I saw that train and I got on it
With a heartful of hate, a lust for vomit
I'm parkin' out on the sunnyside of the street
ย
Stepped over bodies in Bombay
I tried to make it to the USA
Ended up in Nepal
Up on the roof with nothing at all
And I knew that day
I was gonna stay right where I am
On the sunnyside of the street
Oh, sing it out
ย
Been in a palace and I been in a jail
Just don't wanna be reborn a snail
Just wanna spend eternity
Right where I am
On the sunnyside of the street
As my mother wept it was then I swore
To take my life as I would a whore
I know I'm better than before
I will not be reconstructed
Gonna stay right here on the sunnyside of the street
On the sunnyside of the street
On the sunnyside of the street
On the sunnyside of the street
ย
Okay, let's just check it up here and get gone
Real gone, G-O-N-E
