I haven’t see you around since I was a youth   Yeah, they’ve really cleaned up this town   They cracked down on you      But lately I see changes   I see some beautiful changes      You’re back, Ratso Rizzo   You’re back, Ratso Rizzo   I’m glad, Ratso Rizzo   You’re back in town      Yeah, every hang-out I had had become a boutique   And every local bar turned to one with a theme      But thanks to a deep recession   There’s no more gentrification      You’re back, Ratso Rizo   You’re back, Ratso Rizo   I’m glad, Ratso Rizo   You’re back in town      You’re back in town   Hangin’ around   You are my pal      Lately I see changes   I see some beautiful changes      Some beaten-up faces   Yeah, you strut around wasted   It makes me elated      You’re back, Ratso Rizzo…   You’re back, Ratso Rizo   I’m glad, Ratso Rizo   You’re back in town      You’re back in town   Hangin’ around   You are my pal      Ratso Rizzo
