It was raining. It was cold
West Bethlehem was no place
for a twelve year old
for a twelve year old
So he packed his bags
and he headed out
and he headed out
To find out what
the world's about
the world's about
He went to France.
He went to Spain
He went to Spain
He found love.
He found pain.
He found pain.
He found stores
so he started to shop
so he started to shop
But he had no money
so he got in trouble with a cop
so he got in trouble with a cop
Kids in trouble with the cops
From Israel didn't have no home
So he cut his hair
and moved to Rome
and moved to Rome
It was there he met
his Irish bride
his Irish bride
And they rented a flat
on the lower east side of Rome...
on the lower east side of Rome...
Italy that is
Music publishers, book binders,
Bible belters, Money Changers,
Bible belters, Money Changers,
Spoon Benders and lots
of pretty Italian chicks.
of pretty Italian chicks.
