[English]

I've been living outside of Philly

Yeah, I'm so far away

I've been gone for more than a minute

Is the neighborhood the same?

All the kids on the corner

California never had that thing

I remember Rich Girl in the summer

Like yesterday

Philly forget me not, forget me not, forget me not

Come on Philly, don't forget me now

Philly forget me not, forget me not, forget me not

Come on Philly, don't forget me now

Philly forget me not, forget me not, forget me not

Come on Philly, don't forget me now

Going back the way ofローウィン seven

There was music all night

Oh, and when the hands hit eleven

Pennsylvania came to life

All the kids on the corner

California never had that thing

I remember rich girl in the summer

Like yesterday

Philly forget me not, forget me not, forget me not

Come on Philly, don't forget me now

Philly forget me not, forget me not, forget me not

Come on Philly, don't forget me now

Philly forget me not, forget me not, forget me not

Come on Philly, don't forget me now

Every time I go away from ya

I can feel my mama wait for me

Philly, I would never change on ya

You ain't always sunny, honey

But you love me back

Philly forget me not, forget me not, forget me not

Philly forget me not, forget me not, forget me not

Philly forget me not, forget me not, forget me not

Come on Philly, don't forget me now

Philly forget me not, forget me not, forget me not

Come on Philly, don't forget me now

Just like yesterday

Philly forget me not, forget me not, forget me not

Come on Philly, don't forget me now

Philly forget me not, forget me not, forget me not

Come on Philly, don't forget me now

Philly forget me not, forget me not, forget me not

Come on Philly, don't forget me now

Philly forget me not, forget me not, forget me not

Come on Philly, don't forget me now
