Name of "coming of age" movie - -


I would greatly appreciate if anyone can help me with the name of this movie.

It is about a young (13 or 14) middle class boy who meets a more upscale girl.

Snipets I remember:
He one day gets advice from some women being held in jail, and he keeps returning to get more advice.

I think the girl's name might have been Melissa because at the end of the movie, he dances with her as the band (or dj, not sure) plays the Allman Brothers "Sweet Melissa"
