The Boy From Crosstown

Lyrics

[Intro] (Ooh, ooh) (Ooh) Ooh [Verse 1] Way on the other side of town (Ooh) Lives a boy that's been misunderstood Just because he lives 'cross town and I live downtown My family says that he's no good [Chorus] People listen now He may be a boy from 'cross town But he's sure enough the boy that I love (Love, love, love, love) It's not where you come from that makes what you are It's what inside that counts by far I'm talking 'bout the boy from 'cross town Don't you know that he's sure enough the boy that I love (Love, love, love, love) [Verse 2] People downtown say he's trouble bound Because on his face he wears a frown He only acts the way he does because He's unwanted and he's unloved [Chorus] He may be a boy from 'cross town But he's sure enough the boy that I love (Love, love, love, love) And all the love that he's never known I'll tenderly give to him alone I'm talking 'bout the boy from 'cross town Don't you know that he's sure enough the boy that I love (Love, love, love, love) Don't you know that I'm talking 'bout the boy from 'cross town,, mmhmm He's sure enough the boy that I love I love him, I love him, oh yes I do [Bridge] Yes, I do (Really, really love him) Oh, yes I do (Do you love him?) I love my baby (Really love him?) [Verse 3] Oh, my family say they want what's best for me A nice young man from society But I don't want no doctor's son, you see I want the boy that means the means the most to me [Chorus] I want the boy from 'cross town, yes I do 'Cause he's sure enough the boy that I love (Love, love, love, love) Other see him as the reckless kind But in my eyes he's just a dream divine I'm talking 'bout the boy from 'cross town Don't you know that he's sure enough the boy that I love (Love, love, love, love) Don't want nobody (Talking 'bout the boy from 'cross town) Oh, he's sure enough the boy that I love (Love, love, love, love) Don't want nobody else (Talking 'bout the boy from 'cross town) Ooh, he's sure enough the boy that I love, oh (Love)
