Bad Side of Town

Bad Side Of Town - Alan Hull

Where I was born was called

The bad side of the town

But the people knew the difference

Between a smile and a frown

And it didn't cost a penny

To shake a hand or two

And if you help to make it through the dark

I would do the same thing to you

Bad side of town

Old soldiers never like down

Got a penny in the pocket

For a bottle of brown

And the women talk a giggling

The mothers everyone

And the children play with the children

And the children always had fun

I can hear the river flow inside of everyone

In spite of everyone

The tide is on the turn

And the bad side of town

Was named by nameless men

Do they knew themselves

As faces never as friends

And the bad side of town

For sure it got to pull down

And the people who lives to people

Never put their faces down

I can hear the river flow inside of everyone

In spite of everyone

The tide is on the turn

I can hear the river flow in inside of everyone

In spite of everyone

The tide is on the turn
