The Poor Side Of Town

Do-doo-doo-wah, shoo-be-doo-be

Do-doo-doo-wah, shoo-be-doo-be

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 guy you've been seein'

Must have put you down

So welcome back, baby

To the poor side of town

To him you were nothin' but a little plaything (Was a plaything, doo-wah)

Not much more than an overnight fling (Overnight fling, doo-wah)

To me you were the greatest thing this boy had ever found

And girl it's hard to find nice things

On the poor side of town

I can't blame you for tryin' (No, no, no, no)

I'm tryin' to make it too

I've got one little hang up, baby

I just can't make it without you (Without you, without you, ah)

So tell me, are you gonna stay no? (Will you stay now, doo-wah)

Will you stand by me girl, all the way now? (All the way now, doo-wah)

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

Together we can make it, baby

From the poor side of town

So tell me how much you love me

Come be near to me and say you need me now

Oh, with you by my side

This world can't keep us down

Together we can make it, baby

From the poor side of town

Do-doo-doo-wah, shoo-be-doo-be

Do-doo-doo-wah, shoo-be-doo-be

Do-doo-doo-wah shoo-be-doo-be
