Curtis Mayfield - The Other Side of Town Lyrics

Artist: Curtis Mayfield

Album: Miscellaneous

Genre: R&B

I'm from the other side of town
Out of bounds
To anybody who don't live around
I never learned to share or how to care
I never had no teachings about being fair

Depression is part of my mind
The sun never shines
On the other side of town
The need here is always for more
There's nothing good in store
On the other side of town

It's hard to do right in this filthy night
Just plain simple comfort
Is completely out of sight
My little sister, she hungry for bread to eat
My brother's hand me down shoes
Are now showing his feet

Ghetto blues showed on the news
All is aware but what the hell do they care
You across the track completely relaxed
You take a warning fact
Don't you never come back
