The Hooters

The Hooters (frequently listed simply as "Hooters", without the definite article) are an American rock band from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. By combining a mix of rock and roll, reggae, ska and folk music, The Hooters first gained major commercial success in the United States in the mid 1980s due to heavy radio and MTV airplay of several songs including "All You Zombies", "Day by Day", "And We Danced" and "Where Do the Children Go". Their popularity resulted in the band opening the Philadelphia portion of the Live Aid benefit concert in 1985. more »

You lived on Vine Street 
I lived at home 
The music was all that we had of our own 
No satisfaction, no dance in my car 
But I had the keys to the world in my beat up guitar 

With my beat up guitar 
You and I will ride away 
From the town that rocked the nation 
Philadelphia, PA 

Kensington Station, we sat on the tracks 
I wrote you a song 
The one you knew it was flat 
You laughed when they told me 
You won't get too far 
If you spend the rest of your life with that beat up guitar 

With my beat up guitar 
You and I will ride away 
From the town that rocked the nation 
Philadelphia, PA 

And I may leave this place tomorrow 
But my soul is here to stay 
In the town that rocked the nation 
Philadelphia, PA 

You can't get to Heaven on the Frankford L 
You can't get to Heaven on the Frankford L 
You can't get to Heaven on the Frankford L 
You can't get to Heaven on the Frankford L 
Oh you can't get to Heaven on the Frankford L 
Cause the Frankford L goes straight to Franklin 
It's just another stop til I find my destination 

With my beat up guitar 
You and I will ride away 
From the town that rocked the nation 
Philadelphia, PA 

And with that beat up guitar 
We're coming home again someday 
To the town that rocked the nation 
Philadelphia, PA 

And I may leave this place tomorrow 
But my soul is here to stay 
In the town that rocked the nation 
Philadelphia, PA 

In the town that rocked the nation 
Philadelphia, PA
