[Intro]
If you just wait with us on the corner tonight
You'll meet a swingin' cad who can put you in tight
Who knows the whole town firsthand
That man, they call "Spider Joe"

We're gonna hop into his pink limousine
And drive downtown where [?] swingin' hippies make the scene

[Verse 1]
Ooh, on backstreet
Where they all dance through the night
Backstreet
Don't even stop when it's light
'Cause the sun [?] the guitars put down, cast a spell on your feet
Ah, Backstreet

[Verse 2]
That Papa Jim's the band when an outsider plays
And you can get your kicks down at Smokey's Cafe
You're gonna find real action
Just knock on anyone's door

[Bridge]
And if a man says "unh-unh, you gotta go"
Just say the password "Let me in, I come with Spider Joe"
[Verse 3]
Ooh, on backstreet
You'll find a world of your own
Backstreet
No one is ever alone
And you know you can let yourself go with a stranger you meet
Ah, Backstreet

[Bridge]
And if a man says "unh-unh, you gotta go"
Just say the password "Let me in, I come with Spider Joe"

[Verse 3]
Ooh, on backstreet
You'll find a world of your own
Backstreet
No one is ever alone
And you know you can let yourself go with a stranger you meet
Ah, Backstreet

[Outro]
Backstreet
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Backstreet
