Cover art for Poor Side Of Town lyrics by Johnny Rivers

It's about a man who is trying to win back a former love who has left him for someone wealthier. He is expressing his feelings of longing for her and missing her, and also acknowledging that she may have moved on to a better life with someone else. He is also making a plea for her to come back to him and stay by his side, despite the struggles they may face on the "poor side of town."
