Poor Side of Town Songtext

von Nick Lowe

Do do do wah shoobie doobie
Do do do wah shoobie doobie
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 seeing, must've put you down
So welcome back baby to the poor side of town
To him you were nothing but a little play thing
Not much more that an over night fling
But to me you were the greatest thing I've ever found
And its hard to find a good thing on the poor side of town
I don't blame you for tryin,
I've been trying to make it to
But I've got one little hang-up baby
I can't make it with out you
So won't you tell me are you gonna stay now
Stand by me all the way now
With you by my side the world can do us down
And together we can make it out of the poor side of town
Do do do wah shoobie doobie
Do do do wah shoobie doobie
With you by my side
The world can do us down
And together we can make it darlin
From the poor side of town
The poor side of town
The poor side of town
Take my hand
Don't be afraid
Together we can make it baby
From the poor side of town
Do do do wah shoobie doobie
