The Wrong Side Lyrics

Out in the garden
Till the sun goes down
Work the handle till my fingers bleed
Made you the big man in town
While my child hood was a wasting
While my child hood slipped away
I was born on the wrong side of the tracks
So I left but I'm still looking back

Everybody's got a tell of sorrow
Try to forget it
But I can't let go

I used to watch the hobos
With a jealous eye
Cause for me there's no rails to ride
Just the pain to survive
All this time I've been a wasting
All this time done slipped away

I was born on the wrong side of the tracks
So I left but I'm still looking back
Everybody's got a tell of sorrow
Try to forget it
But I can't let go
Time ain't standing still
And there ain't no way to get it back
All this looking over my shoulder
A bad habit

All my life I've been a wasting
All my life done slipped away

I was born on the wrong side of the tracks
So I left but I'm still looking back
Everybody's got a tell of sorrow
Try to forget it
But I can't let go
