Oh I am a backstreet boy and anyone will tell you so

An eye on the moon if there were no tune

And for the kids with no place to go

Me and Scottie were talking that nervous way that we always did

That's when I realized I had something there to show him

And that I would have to keep it hid

I said I wanna walk on down in the ally

Down where the light shines so very dimly

I wanna shake hands with all the creatures that I meet

With miss Cinderella backstreet

Now I try to teach naiveté to kids brought up on tv

I tried hard to smile but I got hung up in style

Yeay it seems they saw right through me

You know, me and Ricky were talking

Between all the noise, the smoke and the jive

And I said play'em those blues

That you learned from the English dudes

Ever what does it really satidfy

I said I wanna walk on down in the ally

Down where the light shines so very dimly

Out where the ally cat walks on silent padded feet

With miss Cinderella backstreet

There was one down for the leather boys

And one for the never been kissed

Still another for all the

Yeah we just somehow seemed to miss

And one more that we could dream on

And still another one for the show

Well Denise, she did my eyes and I felt just like a prize

Until those tears began to flow

And I decided to go and take care of some business

With the gentleman from Morning Side Avenue

Who introduced me to his very best friend from Denver

He took me aside and advised me what it was that I should do

And I said right now I wanna walk on down in the ally

Down where the light shines so very dimly

Out where the night is so complete

With miss Cinderella backstreet

I wanna walk down in the ally

Down where the light shines so very dimly

Out where the ally cat walks on siled padded feet

With miss Cinderella backstreet

With miss Cinderella backstreet
