davis gaines - dear old syracuse lyrics

[antipholus of syracuse]
this is a terrible city
the people are cattle and swine
there isn’t a girl i’d call pretty
nor a friend that i’d call mine
and the only decent place on earth
is the town that gave me birth

you can keep your athens, you can keep your rome
i’m a hometown fellow and i pine for home
i wanna go back, go back
to dear old syracuse
though i’ve worn out sandals and my funds are low
there’s a light that’s burning in the patio
i wanna go back, go back
to dear old syracuse

it is no metropolis
it has no big acropolis
and yet there is a quorum
of cuties in the forum
though thе boys wear tunics that are out of style
thеy will always greet me with a friendly smile
i wanna go back, go back
to dear old syracuse!
both the nile and danube are a silly bore
i’ve got a hometown river that assaults my door
i wanna go back, go back
to dear old syracuse
when a man is lonely it is good to know
there’s a red light burning in the patio
i wanna go back, go back
to dear old syracuse

wives don’t want divorces there
the men are strong as horses there
and should a man philander
the goose forgives the gander
when the search for love becomes a mania
you can take the night boat to albania
i wanna go back, go back
to dear old syracuse!

i wanna go back, go back
to dear old syracuse!
