Nat Stuckey - Lovin' On Backstreets lyrics

We try to pick the most unlikely places

Where no one's apt to know us by our names

Then for a while we share the sweet affection

That makes it worth the sorrow and the pain

Of lovin' on backstreets and livin' on main

Suffering hell through the daylight for the heaven darkness brings

Two hearts in the shadows tradin' passion for pain

Lovin' on backstreets and livin' on main

[ fiddle ]

In the morning when I face the one who owns me

And she conforts me with some things I can't explain

Then once again I'll hate myself for livin'

And wonder just how long my mind can stand the strain

Of lovin' on backstreets and livin' on main...
