Edwin Starr - Back Street Lyrics

I've been living off of Main Street
Where society is the thing
But people that live on the Main Street
They don't know how to swing

Plus the people on the back street
They swing, all night long
Although I live on the main street
The back streets is where I belong

So, show me the back streets
Show me the back streets
Show me the back streets, now come on
Show me the back streets
Well well well

People walk' side by side
Without knowing each other's name
And soul is the only thing you need
To join right in and swing

Where people stick together
One for all and all for one
Where they don't care how much money you got
As long as you're havin' fun

So, show me the back streets
Show me the back streets
Show me the back streets, come on
Show me the back streets, well well well well

Come on show me the back streets
Bein' a stranger in any town
Is a very lonesome thing
(Ooo) but if I find the back streets of any town
I know I'll find a friend
So, show me the back streets
Show me the back streets
Show me the back streets, now come on
Show me the back streets yeah
Yeah yeah yeah

Come on and show me
Show me the back streets baby
That's where I wanna be yeah
Come on and show me

Show me the back streets
Show me
Show me the back streets baby
Mmm"
