Gather up the boys to come and take your back We stand all together against the opposed We'll die for our brethren, that we have chose On the wrong - side of the tracks On the wrong - side of the tracks Escalation, war in the streets Catch one sucker and he gets beat What you see is what you get Soft mother****ers will soon meet their end On the wrong - side of the tracks On the wrong - side of the tracks And when you're in ****in' Brooklyn You best watch your back ! It took you damn long To hear me sing this song Cuz I'm the mother****er from the wrong Side of the tracks Yo! Hey I'm from around the way You'd better not stay on the wrong Side of the tracks Ducking from the 5-0 Didn't know where to go Never should've stepped on the wrong Side of the tracks Hey ! Yo cuz I'm good to go I gotta get back from the wrong Side of the tracks CHORUS:Across the tracks No one thakes your back Across the tracks The boys in the gang Want to dee me hang Well I had my bells rang on the wrong Side of the tracks Strapped, abroken pact Caught in a trap on the wrong Side of the tracks Wrong or right, I had to fight I ran for daylight to the right Side of the tracks A lesson to learn When the tables are turned You might get burned on the wrong Side of the tracks CHORUS
