We like each other, it is pretty obvious
But there's a problem for the two of us
When I am with you and your folks see us round
They think that I am from the wrong side of town
You're from the richest side
Where they flaunt wealth far and wide
I am from the poorer part
Where everyone has a big heart
Will you ever get over
Feeling so superior
Your folks think I pull you down
Because I'm from the wrong side of town
At school I hung out with other poorer boys
Rich boys looked down on us and had all the trendy toys
Their mums would drop them off in their big 4by4's
All we wrong-side boys would walk right from our front doors
You're from the richest side
Where they flaunt wealth far and wide
I am from the poorer part
Where everyone has a big heart
Will you ever get over
Feeling so superior
Your folks think I pull you down
Because I'm from the wrong side of town
This thing lasts forever, I am being kept right down
Why you love me I don't know, I am from the wrong side of town
You're from the richest side
Where they flaunt wealth far and wide
I am from the poorer part
Where everyone has a big heart
Will you ever get over
Feeling so superior
Your folks think I pull you down
Because I'm from the wrong side of town
Your folks think I pull you down
Because I'm from the wrong side of town
