Steve Earle — The Other Side of Town

[Intro] One, two A one, two [Verse 1] When I'm sad and blue And I'm feeling all alone There's a place then I go to That no one knows Where no matter what I do Won't nobody put me down That's why I'm going to The other side of town [Chorus] On the other side of town Where the sun don't ever shine Everybody walks around With a shadow 'cross their minds When that midnight train rolls by And they hear that lonesome sound They just hang their heads and cry On the other side of town [Verse 2] Well, it isn't very far And it's not that hard to find You just follow all the other lonely souls Take a walk down lonesome lane Until you see the dead end sign And your broken heart will tell you where to go [Chorus] [Verse 3] So if you'll find someone Who won't ever let you down Hurry home before the sun goes down And no matter what you do Don't let night fall like a shroud And catch you on the other side of town [Chorus]
