Lyrics from the MIDI .kar music file

Do~doo~bee~doo~wah shoo~be~doo~be
Do~doo~bee~doo~wah shoo~be~doo~be

How can you tell me
How much you miss me

When the last time I saw you
You wouldn't even kiss me

That rich guy you've been seeing
Must have put you do~wn

So welcome back baby
To the poor side of town

To him you were nothin'
But a little plaything

Not much more
than an overnight fling

To me you were the greatest thing
this boy had ever found

And girl it's hard to find nice things
On the poor side of town

I can't blame you for tryin'
I'm tryin' to make it to~o

I've got one little hang up ba~by
I just can't make it without you

So tell me
are you gonna stay now

Will you stand by me girl
all the way now

With you by my si~de
They can't keep us do~wn

Together we can make it ba~by
From the poor side of town

.....Background.....

(So tell me how much you love me)
(Come be near to me and say you need me now)

Oh with you by my si~de
This world can't keep us down

Together we can make it ba~by
From the poor side of town

Do~doo~bee~doo~wah shoo~be~doo~be
Do~doo~bee~doo~wah shoo~be~doo~be
Do~doo~bee~doo~wah shoo~be~doo~be
