Lyrics

[Verse 1]
This hole in the wall where the music they play
Is the kind you listen to, to wash your troubles away
She sits all alone, with her drink on its way
Posted with her eyes closed as, left to right, her head sways
[Verse 2]
Ooh, so beautiful all I could think
Is her vibe wasn't like no one's I've ever seen
Hi, would you mind if I take a seat?
So I sat and as we started to chat that's when she told me
[Verse 3]
She's from Philadelphia she grew up on the west side
A one room apartment in L-A where she now resides
Oh, Ms. Philadelphia though we just meet tonight
Can I be a part of your life?
[Verse 4]
Her favorite color's red she has two dogs and a goldfish
She say's after law school she wants a career before kids
[Verse 5]
We spoke forever on topics like religion and politics
Up until the music stopped which meant our time was at its end, so
[Verse 6]
Ooh, as the lights came up ever so slow
We had romanced and I wasn't about to let it go
As I pulled out her chair so that we could leave
I asked her was it too soon
To ask her can you spend the night with me, she
[Verse 7]
She's from Philadelphia, she grew up on the west side
A one room apartment in L-A where she now resides
Oh, Ms. Philadelphia though we just meet tonight
(Tell me can I be) Can I be a part of your life?
[Verse 8]
Miss P-H-I-L-L-Y, can we try to do this?
I'm hope I'm not askin' to much but
Can I get a little hometown love?
Miss P-H-I-L-L-Y, let's just try to do this
I hope that I'm not askin' to much but
Can I get a little hometown love?
[Verse 9]
She's from Philadelphia, she grew up on the west side
A one room apartment in L-A where she now resides
Oh, Ms. Philadelphia though we just meet tonight
Can I be a part of your life?
[Verse 10]
She's from Philadelphia, she grew up on the west side
A one room apartment in L-A where she now resides
Oh, Ms. Philadelphia though we just meet tonight
Can I be a part of your life, life?
