Living on the Eastside
By: Lonnie Flemmer
Reprobate/SESAC

Just a another punk named Johnny,
Seen his kind before
Tries to be a loner
But he's so hard to ignore

Its a theme park for losers
And he's the fastest ride
Its great to be young
When you're living on the eastside

Just another chick named Debbie
Sweetheart of the avenue
She got two kids by Johnnie
And a third by God knows who

But she's still looking pretty
And her hopes haven't died
You gotta have a dream
When you're living on the eastside
You gotta have a dream
When you're living on the eastside

Just another punk named Johnny
And a girl named Debra Ann
Just doing what feels good
Anytime they can
There ain't nothing to be sorry for
Nothing to understand
Its just the way it goes
When the lights are low
Turn up that radio
Don't want your momma to know

Johnny joined the carnival
And he's got some new tatoos
Debbie joined the band
Now she gets paid to sing the blues
And they still look pretty
And their hopes haven't died
You gotta have a dream
When you're living on the eastside

You gotta have a dream
When you're living on the eastside

Repeat
