Michael John Patek - Wrong Side of Town Lyrics

I was from the north side
She was from the west side
She used to look so good
Just relaxing by the pool side
Her daddy was a nice guy
But a little on the meek side
Mama she wore the pants in the family
A little on the tight side
She said you don't stand a chance with my little girl
I was from the wrong side of town
Just about the time I thought
My life would change for better
I met a little girl
Who looked much better in a sweater
But beauty's only skin deep
And smiles just keep you guessing
Looking deep into her eyes
You're sure to learn another lesson
A young man sure learns fast
Stepping on the wrong side of town
Uptown downtown
It doesn't seem to matter
They try and try to drag you down
Till all your dreams are shattered
So I stepped into a night club
With my wingtips and my shades
The band began to play the blues
As I stepped upon the stage
I love you dearly
But not nearly enough to play your fool
I hope sincerely
That you have sense enough to play the rules
'Cause if you don't come around baby
You'll turn around and I'll be gone
I'm gone babe
