Darkest Street In Town:Jimmy Clanton.
#77 on BB Hot 100 on ACE Records in 1963.
INTRO: (Shhhhhhhhhh..)
#1.
We meet on the darkest street in town.
We kiss when there s no one else around.
We go where no one knows our faces..
standing in the shadows..sharing our embraces..
on the darkest street in town.
#2.
We love, a-but the world will never know.
We hide, each and every place we go.
It seems that you and me, are always
ducking into alleys, dimly lit hallways..
on the darkest street in town.
BRIDGE:
You belong to another, and, baby, I m not free.
Love like ours can t last too long, and even though
we know it s wrong.
#3.
We meet on the darkest street in town.
We kiss when there s no one else around.
Alone, so they won t discover..meet me on the corner..
see you later, lover..on the darkest street in town.
(INTERLUDE:)
#4.
Alone, so they won t discover..meet me on the corner..
see you later, lover..on the darkest street in town.
OUTRO:
Tonight, I m gonna meet you on the corner round about
midnight don t stand near the streetlights slipping and
a-sliding go find a place for hiding cause we gotta keep
it our very special secret..(Shhhhhhhhhhh..)(Fade.)
