THE WALKABOUTS - POOR SIDE OF TOWN lyrics

rate me

How can you tell me how much you miss me

When the last time I saw you, you wouldn't even kiss me

The rich guy you're seein' must have put you down

So welcome back, baby, to the poor side of town

To him you ain't nothin' but a play-thing

Not much more than an overnight-thing

To me you're the greatest that I've ever found

And it's hard to find nice things on the poor side of town

I can't blame you for trying

I'm trying to make it true

I got one kind of [ ? ]

I can't make it without you

So tell me, are you gonna stay now?

Would you stand by me, all the way now?

With you by my side, they can't keep us down

Together we can make it from the poor side of town

Together we can make it from the poor side of town

So welcome back, baby, to the poor side of town
