The Other Side of the Track

Everyday, just at noon
When my shift work is done
I run down the railroad as fast as I can
Hoping that she
One day will come back
The girl that I loved from the other side of the track

Here I stand, I can see
Where the rich people live
To come from that side of the track, what would I give?
I know too well
The things that I like
The good things they have on the other side of the track

For that's where we met
What made me speak to her
I could tell from her fancy clothes, she wasn't for me
But then ???
???
To win such a girl, what a fool is he?

Everyday, just at noon
When my shift work is done
She promised to meet me, but she must have promised in fun
Well now I see
She's turned her back
On the boy that she met from the other side of the track
From the other side of the track
From the other side of the track
From the other side of the track
