John Prine - Back Street Affair lyrics

Your rating:

You didn't know I wasn't free

When you fell in love with me

And with all your young heart you learned to care

It brought you shame and disgrace

The world has tumbled in your face

'Cause they call our love a back street affair



They say I wrecked your home,

You're a husband that's gone wrong

They don't know the sorrow that we had to bear

For the one I'm tied to 

was the first to prove untrue

Now they call our love a back street affair



We have each other now,

That's all that matters anyhow

For the judgment of gossip's never fair

We'll just be brave and strong

Then someday they'll see they're wrong

Let 'em call our love a back street affair



We'll be free to love someday

When all the talk has died away

and the happiness we hoped for then we'll share

We'll climb a mountain high,

then the world will hear us cry

That our love was not a back street affair

No, our love was not a back street affair
