Angeltown Songtext
von Cletis Carr

My family ain′t got money
I still wear hand-me-downs
Live in a shack by the freight train tracks
In the low rent part of town

The girl I wanna marry
She's from a wealthy background
She can′t date or associate with a boy
From the low rent part of town

Someday we'll be together
She'll wear that wedding gown
But until then I spend my days
In the low rent part of town

I got me a job with the circus
Working the merry-go-round
It′s the best I can do ′cause they closed all the schools
In the low rent part of town


I saved up all my money
So I could take her for a big night out
But her dad said go back to my own kind
In the low rent part of town

Someday we'll be together
She′ll wear that wedding gown
But until then I spend my days
In the low rent part of town

In this world there's two kind of people
Those with money and those without
And I scrimp and scrape so I can escape
From the low rent part of town

I hope we′ll be together
I hope she'll wear that gown
I′ll spend my days and my lonely nights
In the low rent part of town

Someday we'll be together
She'll wear that wedding gown
But until then I spend my days
In the low rent part of town
