Raindrops falling softly
As I walk on down the road
Neon lights flicker
Reflecting on my leather coat
A black guy passes me by
He`s looking kind`a high
When I`m reaching for a smile
I see that strange look in his eye
Here I am in Philadelphia
And I`m walking in the rain.
You`re out there in Compton, baby
Do you still remember my name?
I couldn`t hear what he said
But I suddenly realised
Thousands thoughts go through my head
While his steps they follow mine
A woman must be crazy
To be out this time at night
Unless she`s looking for some business
Unless she`s feeling real uptight
Here I am in Philadelphia
And I`m walking in the rain. (x 2)
You`re out there in Compton, baby
Do you still remember my name?
Here I`m standing at the station
Waiting for my train to come
When that dude gave me a look
Made me wonder what I`d done
A woman must be crazy
To be out this time at night
Unless she`s looking for some trouble
Unless she`s out of her mind
Here I am in Philadelphia
And I`m walking in the rain. (x 2)
You`re out there in Compton, baby
Do you still remember my name?
Do you baby?
Do you remember?
Do you baby?
Do you remember?
Remember my name?
