Steely Dan — Talkin About My Home

[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]
