I've heard you've been saying things about my part of town
Well some of us still call it home and we don't want it put down
If you'll take time and clean your mind you'll take what you set back
Who's got the right to say which side is the wrong side of the tracks

See that house across the way and that woman in the door
A man from your side of town goes there once a week or more
He thinks no one will notice if he parks his car out back
Who's got the right to say which side is the wrong side of the tracks
[ steel ]
It's true we have factories here you don't have on your side
But your better homes are built with they money they provided
I think sometimes the parts incline to call the Carole Black
Who's got the right to say which side is the wrong side of the tracks
See that house across the way
