Back on the Street Again Lyrics

I was so lonely until I met you
Told myself I'd get by without love
Drownin' my sorrows
Avoiding tomorrows
And I felt that I just had enough
Your light on my face
And your jokes and your smiles
And the way that you came every night
I don't what you got
But I'm sure glad I found you
But I sure feels right
Here I am
I'm back on the street again
Here I am
I'm back on my feet again

Surprised at myself
By the way that I feel
So happy that you're here with me
Some men that I've known have left me with nothing
But I guess that was just meant to be
Here I am
I'm back on the street again
Here I am
I'm back on my feet again

I was down for the count
I was down, I was beat, I was cryin'
I was caught up in hate
Hiding my face and got trying

I was so lonely until I met you
Told myself I'd get by without love
Drownin' my sorrows
Avoiding tomorrows
And I felt like I just had enough
Here I am
I'm back on the street again
Here I am
I'm back on my feet again

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
