The Other Side of Liverpool lyrics

[Verse 1]
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

[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

[Verse 2]
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
[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

[Bridge]
That was the other side of Liverpool
The other side of Liverpool
You know it's true

[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
The other side, the other side
The other side of Liverpool
You know it's true
