Vanessa Williams - On The Other Side Of The Tracks

On the other side of the tracks
That's where I'm going to be
On the other side of that great divide
Between fame and fortune and me
Gonna put my shadows behind me
Give my inhibitions the ax
And tomorrow morning, you'll find me
On the other side of the tracks

On the other side of that line
Where the life is fancy and free
Gonna sit and fan on my fat divan
While the butler buttles the tea
But for now, I'm facing the fences
And I can't afford to relax
When the whole kaboodle commences
On the other side of the tracks

So I'm off and running over the rail
I'm going gunning after the quail
Off and running, send me my mail
To the great big world on the other side
The great big world on the other side
The great big world on the other side of the tracks

So I'm off and running over the rail
I'm going gunning after the quail
Off and running, send me my mail
To the great big world on the other side
The great big world on the farther side
The great big world on the other side of the tracks
To the great big world that'll open wide
To the great big world on the other side of the tracks
