[Verse 1]
I was born and raised and lived and loved and died today
But when I saw the lights my word was hip hooray
It took me by surprise
It was right before my eyes
[Chorus]
Talkin' bout my home
The city in the sky
Talkin' bout my home
The only home I ever known
[Verse 2]
Well you're halfway through the gate where you will live inside
Well I knew a dude who said it ain't no trip he lied
Well I saw his face, oh God
When we crossed the promenade
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Well now I've got to catch that wonderful express
So I'll just say good evening to you all God bless
Just put me on that train
That great celestial plane
[Chorus]
