Текст песни: Paris of America + перевод

Good gentleman stroller

Take your lady down Broad Street

In the Paris of America

Regard the fountains and the finery

But don’t spark your imagination

For your fears are just around the corner

Where there are riots and disease

Savages walk the streets

Brawling Irish thieves

Down on Bedford Street

Well you should see it for yourself good sir

Let me take you to the dens and the hovels

No need to see the wild west

You could lose your life on Bedford Street

There’s a vice for every degradation

So beware a friendly invitation

They breed like a disease

Flourish and fill the streets

See the bawdy houses breathe

Down on Bedford Street

Come with me down Sorrow’s Circuit

Through the grog shops and the barrooms

The savagery of a scalping Redman

Ain’t nothing for our Philadelphian ruffian

A war of extermination

Is being threatened by that «Jacobin club»

So as you curtsy on the boulevard

Plans are being hatched on Bedford Street

To build the barricades on Broad

You’ll be the first up against the wall

With a rag stuffed in your mouth

In front of a baying angry crowd

Swinging from a beam

Down on Bedford Street
