Low Down on the Backstreets Songtext
von Whitey Morgan and the 78’s

I′ve seen that look in your eyes
I know I could start to count the days
Till I had to fix this heart of mine
Lord knows I've found the ways
And girl here we go again
Tonight I′m walkin' out that door
I've learned with you I can′t win
And I′m caring less more and more
So take me down onto Main Street
Play me an old country song
When I get low down on the backstreet
I'm gettin′ high and good and gone
Girl you can find me on the Main Street
Where everybody knows my name
And if you ever want to come back
Just tell me your sorry
And I'll do the same
Well I know I had my fun
With all them bars and dancing′ girls
Yeah you ain't the only one


That likes to get a little wild in this world
Well you know I heard this all before
Had enough of the cheatin′ and the lyin'
Leave them stories at the door
Yeah tonight I'm ten feet high and flyin′
•••
Take down me down onto Main Street
Play me an old country song
When I get low down on the backstreet
And I′m gettin' high and gettin′ gone
Yeah you can find me on the main street
Where everybody knows my name
And if you ever want to come back
Just tell me your sorry
And I'll do the same
Come on take me down onto Main Street
Let me sing that old Waylon song
I′ll be here if you come back
Low down on the backstreet
Gettin' high and gettin′ gone
