Seen the carnival at rome
Had the women i had the booze
All i can remember now
Is little kids without no shoes
So i saw that train and i got on it with a heartful of hate
And a lust for vomit


Now i'm walking on the sunnyside of the street


Stepped over bodies in bombay
Tried to make it to the u.s.a.
Ended up in nepal
Up on the roof with nothing at all
And i knew that day i was going to stay


Right where i am, on the sunnyside of the street

Been in a palace, been in a jail
I just don't want to be reborn a snail
Just want to spend eternity


Right where i am, on the sunnyside of the street


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

On the sunnyside of the street
