Big George and the Business 03 - wrong side of town Lyrics

Born on the wrong side of town (George Ross Watt)

Born on the east side child i'm, raised in the west,
Folks didn't have much money, you know they always tried to give me thier best,
Grew up in a tower block, seemed to me just like a prison in the sky,
Underneath that tower block, they'll bury me when i die.

I were born on the wrong side,
born on the wrong side,
born on the wrong side,
born on the wrong side,
born on the wrong side of town.

She grew up on easy street, she didn't have nothin' but the best,
"Get yourself a Doctor or a Lawyer, honey" Mamma said, forget about the rest,
All i ever knew was how to sing these blues,
Mamma clipped my Angel's wings, said "That guitar played ain't no use".

Said i'm born on the wrong side,
born on the wrong side,
born on the wrong side,
born on the wrong side,
born on the wrong side of town.

Everybody says, i should be feeling better,
But they don't know just how hard i've tried to forget her,
Bad luck and trouble, had me dogged down from the start,
You can break my legs, break my arms,
Child, don't break my heart.

I was born on the wrong side of town.
born on the wrong side,
born on the wrong side,
born on the wrong side,
born on the wrong side of town.
