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

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 thing

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 tryin'

I'm tryin' to make it too

I've got one little hang up, baby

I just 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
