lyrics
WE ARE PHILADELPHIA
By Jessy Kyle, Shawn Kyle, & John Willis
Chorus
We are Philadelphia
Our home, our heart, we live here
We are Philadelphia
Deep inside, we’re full of pride
We are Philadelphia
Unified we stand together now
We are Philadelphia
Our home our heart we live here
Verse 1
(We are)
We are tried and true, need a hand and we’ll give you two
(We are)
Mummer’s on New Year’s Day, shows on the Parkway
(We are)
Gospel choir on Sunday morn,
Family reunions on the plateau
Love so brotherly, city that I’m proud to be
(We are)
One community, we work together so we’ll succeed
(We are)
City Hall, Broad St Line, South Street, Love Park, Kelly Drive
(We are)
El Centro de Oro, Chinatown, Italian market
Love so brotherly, city that I’m proud to be
Chorus
Verse 2
(We are)
First red, white, and blue, start of our nation, too
(We are)
Sixers, Flyers, Eagles thrill, home of the Phightin’ Phil
(We are)
We are family strong, work hard, play hard, get along
(We are)
Love so brotherly, city that I’m proud to be
Bridge
There’s no place like my home, my people, my heroes
Wherever I roam I just can’t wait to get back home
Sing it with me
Rittenhouse, Chestnut Hill, Point Breeze, Northeast,
South Philly, Fairmont, Queen Village, Belmont,
West Philly, North Philly, Southwest, Old City, Bridesburg, Hunting Park, Manayunk, Museum of Art
Olney, Tacony, Port Richmond, and Mt. Airy
Germantown and West Oak Lane
Our home, our heart, that’s where we stay
Chorus
