Backstreet Baby

she was standing on a back street - she was filling up her need she was wanted in 4 counties - only days since she’d been freed living for no reason she got nothin left to lose left her baby back home cryin’ - her hunger was too deep she gave up - even trying - to sing her back to sleep living for no reason she got nothin left to lose nothin to believe in - nothing left to prove meet me down on the back street baby my hands are dirty - my tongue is tied i’ll give you love like a back street lady share my shame in broad daylight Backstreet Baby - Dana Fuchs she’d been waiting for her mama - on the wrong side of the hate scrapping for survival - too small to carry her own weight fighting for a reason - she had everything to lose some one to believe in - makes it easier to choose (so she says) meet me down on the back street baby my hands are dirty - my tongue is tied i’ll give you love like a back street lady share my shame in broad daylight
