(Chips Moman - Dan Penn)



At the dark end of the street

That's where we always meet

Hiding in shadows where we don't belong

Living in darkness to hide our wrong

You and me at the dark end of the street, you and me.



I know that time's gonna take its toll

We have to pay for the love we stole

It's a sin and we know it's wrong

Oh but our love keeps a coming on strong

Steal away to the dark end of the street, you and me.



They're gonna find us, yes, they're gonna find us

They're gonna find us, oh, some day

You and me at the dark end of the street, you and me.



And when the daylight hours roll around

And by ten we're both downtown

If we shoud meet you just walk right on by

Oh my darling now please don't you cry

Tonight we'll meet at the dark end of the street, you and me...
