1.)
Where I was born was called the bad side of the town
 Em               C        G
but the people knew the difference between a smile and a frown
 Em                      D      D7
and it didn't cost a penny to shake a hand or two
 Em               C       G
and if you help to make it thru the dark
      Em       D
I would do the same thing to you.

Bad side of town, old soldiers never like down
 Em           C         G
got a penny in the pocket for a bottle of brown
 Em                    D  D7
and the women talk a giggling, the mothers everyone
 Em                 C      G
and the cildren play with the children
     Em           D
and the children always had fun.
