recording of 1997
from
Me, My Gitar & The Blues (Ichiban 24909)
Walkin' the Back Streets, I am hanging down real low
Walkin' the Back Streets, my head is hanging down real low
I just lost what I've loved and I don't know where else 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 ev'rybody 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
