This guy loves this girl so much. Although she seems like she's trying to be something she's not, like dating this rich man. Eventually Ritchie Rich dumps her and she goes back to this guy that loves her, and he's basically just asking her if she'll stay with him now that she's back to being herself. The Poor side of town he's referring to is basically just a metaphor for her being back home to normality. They may or may not really be poor, but compared to lavish rich folk, middle class or "normal" is somewhat considered poor. Great song
