Backstreets Of Heaven Lyrics - Smokey River Boys

Verse Number One: 

You were living....steady.....with a big movie star..... 

Had the best of "who's who".....drove a Mercedes car... 

With all that money and fame....he never offered you his name... 

But I love you darling....to me you're a Saint.... 

Verse Number Two: 

I don't live on the highest knob hill in town.... 

This house is small...and its some what run down.... 

But I'm not looking yet...for a Hollywood address..... 

On the backstreets of Heaven....I'll be someday I guess.... 

THE CHORUS: 

This backstreet of Heaven...with you is Heavenly.... 

No the neighbors won't be talking....nobody's fixing blame... 

For you leaving your big star....and leaving luxury.... 

For this backstreet Heaven....and a poor boy like me.... 

Verse Number Three: 

Loving you special....is my claim to fame.... 

On a backstreet in Heaven...I offered you my name.... 

Not I'm Heaven bound...on a new avenue... 

And the backstreets of Heaven...are heaven with you.... 

THE CHORUS: 

This backstreet of Heaven...with you is Heavenly.... 

No the neighbors won't be talking....nobody's fixing blame... 

For you leaving your big star....and leaving luxury.... 

For this backstreet Heaven....and a poor boy like me.... 

TAG: For this backstreet Heaven & a poor boy like me....
