歌词
[Verse 1]
Shout out to the city like Tony Wilson said
Wrong number, Chicago and New York, dial Manchester instead
We're drivin' through Rushholme, Moss Side and Whalley Range
Get caught on the wrong side of the law in this town
They'll treat you in strange ways
[Verse 2]
He symbolized and crystallized freedom, a king with no crown
He left more than a million footprints over this town
[Verse 3]
What of Factory Records with their contracts signed in blood?
And halfway to London, he turned his car round
Somehow just knew he would
Outside The Apollo, the jewel of Ardwick Green
Stone's throw from the Boardwalk, the Hacienda
On the corner of Whitworth Street
[Verse 4]
He symbolized and crystallized freedom, a king with no crown
He left more than a million footprints over this town
[Verse 5]
Some might call it a treason, the king with no crown
And he turned to face his troubles down
To fight for our freedom, turned his Jaguar around
And the wheels kept turnin', wheels kept turnin'
To the Cottonopolis, to the Cottonopolis
[Verse 6]
Shout out to the city like Tony Wilson said
Wrong number, Chicago and New York, dial Manchester instead
Shout out Factory Records with their contracts signed in blood
It's true that not only do the good die young
But only the young die good
[Verse 7]
He symbolized and crystallized freedom, a king with no crown
He left more than a million footprints over this town
He symbolized and crystallized freedom, a king with no crown
He left more than a million footprints over this town
