Bettye Lavette - Streets Of Philadelphia lyrics

I was bruised and battered, couldn't tell what I felt I was unrecognizable even to myself Saw my reflection in a window, I didn't know my own face Oh, brother, you're gonna leave me wasting away On the streets of Philadelphia I walked the avenue 'til my legs felt like stone I heard the voices of my friends vanished and gone At night I hear the blood coursing through my veins Just as black and whispering as a cold, cold rain On the streets of Philadelphia Oh, my, my, my, my Ain't no angel gonna greet me It's just you and I, my friend Oh, my clothes don't even fit me no more I walked a thousand miles just trying to slip this skin, woh-woh Take it the night has fallen, I'm still lying here awake And I can feel myself slowly slipping away Oh, receive me, my brother, with your faithless kiss Or else we're gonna leave each other all alone right here like this On the streets of Philadelphia Ooh, my, my, my, my On the streets of Philadelphia In the City of Brotherly Love Ooh, my, my, my, my On the streets of Philadelphia Ooh, my, my, my Ooh, my, my, my
