Guy Clark - Wrong Side Of The Tracks lyrics

rate me

Nine ball rack sitting on the table

Step right up if you're able

Sonny gives a lesson to a hundred of games

Lay the money down take dead aim

House band rockin' way too long

What you gonna do for a viper crowd

Aint no white, ain't no black,

Welcome to the wrong side of the tracks

Wrong side of the tracks

Tried to leave, but you came right back

To the Wrong side of the tracks

It's in your blood, and that's a fact

From a big old limo sneakin' up slow

Anything you need, you can get it to go

The money comes up, the deal goes down

Looks like somebody's going downtown

Tires squeeling, blue lights flashing

Shots fired, cars crashing

Just keep movin', and watch your back

You're on the wrong side of the tracks

Homeless livin', hand to mouth

Talk about movin' further south

Livin' underneith the overpass

Got a little food but it will not last

Wino dyin' in the gutter

The very last words I heard him mutter

"You think you're smart, but you don't know jack

You're on the wrong side of the tracks"

Wrong side of the tracks

Tried to leave, but you came right back

To the Wrong side of the tracks

You think you're smart, but you don't know jack
