Slum Kids Lyrics - Kinks

We're just slum kids, and we know it 

And we never stood a chance 

We were dragged up from the gutter 

From the wrong side of the tracks 

So how dare you criticize 

When you don't know what it's like 

To be dragged up from the gutter 

From the wrong side of the tracks 

Why do rich kids get all the breaks 

While the poor slum kids have to work, sweat, struggle and slave? 

Why, lord, there's so much injustice in this world? 

Slum kids never stand a chance

Look at all the slum kids all around you 

Oh, they never stood a chance 

We were dragged up from the gutter 

From the wrong side of the tracks 

Why do rich kids get all the breaks 

While the poor slum kids have to work, sweat, struggle and slave? 

Why, lord, there's so much injustice in this world? 

Slum kids never stand a chance 

Look at all the slum kids all around you 

Oh, they never stood a chance 

We were dragged up from the gutter 

From the wrong side of the tracks

So how dare you criticize 

When you don't know what it's like 

To be dragged up from the gutter 

From the wrong side of the tracks
