Walkin' the Back Streets,
I am hanging down real low.
Walking' the Back Streets,
my head is hanging down real low.
I just lost what I've loved
and I don't know wherelse to go.
Tried to quit you, baby,
but it just don't work for me.
Tried to quit you, woman,
but it don't work for me.
I'm so deep in love with you, woman.
Everybody knows, but you can't see.
Come on, baby,
try it just a little while.
Come back, woman,
let's try it just a little while.
Do everything you can,
for me you're a little child.
Tried to quit you, baby,
it just don't work for me.
Tried to put you down,
but it don't work for me.
I'm your only one
like everbody in the world can see.
You know I love you, baby,
would you please try to love me.
You know I love you, woman,
would you please try to love me.
If you don't work it out, baby,
I'll be down on Back Street.
