Poor Side of Town
How can you tell me how much you miss me
When the last time I saw you
You wouldn't even kiss me
That rich girl you've been seeing
She must have put you down
So welcome back baby
To the poor side of town
To her you were nothing but a little plaything
Not much more than an overnight fling
Oh, to me you were the greatest thing
This girl has 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 too
I've got one little hang-up baby
I just can't make it without you
So tell me, tell me baby
Are you going to stay now?
Will you stand by me of the way now?
With you by my side they can't keep it down
Together we can make it baby
On the poor side of town
Together we can make it baby
On the poor side of town.
When the last time I saw you
You wouldn't even kiss me
That rich girl you've been seeing
She must have put you down
So welcome back baby
To the poor side of town
To her you were nothing but a little plaything
Not much more than an overnight fling
Oh, to me you were the greatest thing
This girl has 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 too
I've got one little hang-up baby
I just can't make it without you
So tell me, tell me baby
Are you going to stay now?
Will you stand by me of the way now?
With you by my side they can't keep it down
Together we can make it baby
On the poor side of town
Together we can make it baby
On the poor side of town.
