The Wrong Side Of The Tracks

(The girl from the wrong side of the tracks)
(The girl from the wrong side of the tracks)
(The girl from the wrong side of the tracks)
(The girl from the wrong side of the tracks)

Well, the uptown chicks, they judge her
By her old clothes and her shoes
You can tell she's had a hard life
You can tell that's nothing new
But she holds her head up high
Even when she's got the blues
Above her heart of gold
The ink reads, "Nothing To Lose"

Well, she moves so free and easy
Like an old-time movie star
All eyes are upon her no matter where we are
Then she wraps her arms around me and she whispers in my ear
"Tonight, we're gonna ride away a million miles from here"

From the wrong side of the tracks
From the bad side of the town
That's where she grew up
That's why some girls put her down
But when she crosses over
And meets me late at night
The girl from the wrong side of the tracks
Makes this whole world seem all right
Makes this whole world seem all right

(The girl from the wrong side of the tracks) in a rough and tumble world, she grew up fast
(The girl from the wrong side of the tracks) her hopes and dreams, just shattered like glass
(The girl from the wrong side of the tracks) right from the start we never had a chance
(The girl from the wrong side of the tracks) looking for love in forbidden romance
(The girl from the wrong side of the tracks) year after year it's the same old story
(The girl from the wrong side of the tracks) you gotta fight for love, you gotta fight for glory

When she leaves tonight, I'll ask her
If and when we'll meet again
I look into her eyes and I know the answer then
But she slowly turns away and the tears I cannot fight
The girl from the wrong side of the tracks
Disappears into the night

From the wrong side of the tracks
From the bad side of the town
That's where she grew up
That's why some girls put her down
But when she crosses over
And meets me late at night
The girl from the wrong side of the tracks
Makes this whole world seem all right
(The girl from the wrong side of the tracks)
(The girl from the wrong side of the tracks)

The girl from the wrong side of the tracks
Makes this whole world seem all right
Makes this whole world seem all right
