[Verse 1]
Seen the carnival at Rome
Had the women and I had the booze
All that I can remember now
Is little kids without no shoes

[Chorus 1]
So I saw that train and I got on it
With a heart full of hate and a lust for vomit
Now I'm walking on
The sunnyside of the street

[Verse 2]
Stepped over bodies in Bombay
Tried to make it to the USA
Ended up in Nepal
Up on the roof with nothing at all

[Chorus 2]
And I knew that day
I was going to stay right where I am
On the sunnyside of the street

[Chorus 3]
Been in a palace, been in a jail
I just don't want to be reborn a snail
I just want to spend eternity right where I am
On the sunnyside of the street
[Outro]
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
Just wanna stay right here
On the sunnyside of the street
