The other side of Liverpool is cold and damp
Only way outta there, drums, guitar, and amp
The other side of Liverpool , where I came from
My mother was a barmade.
At the age of three my father was gone.
Dave, if you're listening, well you know what I mean
I was you and Brian Brisko.
Got me thru my early teens. (alright)
The other side of Liverpool
(The other side, the other side)
The other side of Liverpool, you know it's true
The other side of Liverpool, you just had to laugh
we had to go to Stevil's street just to take a bath.
The other side of Liverpool, we used to play for free
They'd give us lukewarm, to keep us 3, eddie,roy, and me
And Roy if you're listening, thanks for all you've done
It was you and me on the factory floor.
When rock n' roll had just begun (oh yeah)
The other side of Liverpool
(The other side, the other side)
The other side of Liverpool, you know it's true
