The other side of Liverpool is cold and damp
Only way out of there drums, guitar and amp
The other side of Liverpool, where I came from
My mother was a barmaid, at the age of three my father was gone
Dave, if you are listening
Well, you know what I mean
It was you and Brian Briscoe
Got me through my early teens alright
Chorus:
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 (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 Steeple Street just to take a bath
The other side of Liverpool, we used to play for free
They'd give us lukewarm beer to keep us sweet, Eddy, Roy and me
And Roy if you are listening
Thanks for all you've done
It was you and me on the factory floor
When rock and roll had just begun, oh yeah
Chorus:
That was 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 (the other side, the other side)
The other side of Liverpool, you know it's true
the other side
That was the other side of Liverpool
The other side of Liverpool, you know it's true
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 (the other side, the other side)
The other side of Liverpool, you know it's true
The other side of Liverpool (the other side, the other side)
The other side of Liverpool, you know it's true
