Wrong Side of Town
Song by Jake Schlegel
I ain’t slept right since I last got high and I just earned my 30 day chip Catches my eyes everytime i pass by the old house I used to get my fix
It turned me into a maniac and it turned me inside out
But I can't stay away from the wrong side of town
Third shift job in the factory I stay mostly to myself
Lately it seems I ain’t got ambition for much else
But when the week is done and payday comes you can try to slow me down
But I’ll keep going back to the wrong side of town
Good luck picking me up
Save your prayers I’ll let you down
I can’t stay away from the wrong side of town
On the overpass is a lady in rags sittin down by the railroad tracks
She’s warning me of the judgement day to come
A still small voice tried to turn me back but I quickly snuffed it out
It don’t belong here on the wrong side of town
Good luck picking me up
Save your prayers I’ll let you down
I can’t stay away from the wrong side of town
I can hear the full moon calling out
You can run but not forever
Good luck picking me up
Save your prayers I’ll let you down
I can’t stay away from the wrong side of town
