Dark End of the Street (w/effects)

Ok so...I think this may be loud, I tried to mix it down a bit. I've been having to adjust my mic volume way up for stickam and blah blah blah.

This is a classic tune made famous by Percy Sledge. The version I listen to most often is the Flying Burrito Bros. which will probably be evident to those who have heard it.


At the dark end of the street
That is where we always meet
Hiding in shadows where we don't belong
Living in darkness, to hide our wrongs
You and me, at the dark end of the street
You and me
I know a time has gonna take it's toll
We have to pay for the love we stole
It's a sin and we know it's wrong
Oh, our love keeps going on strong
You and me at the dark end of the street
You and me
They gonna find us, they gonna find us
They gonna find us love someday
We'll steal away to the dark end of the street
You and me
If you should take a walk downtown
And find some time to look around
If you should see me and I walk on bye
Oh, darling, please don't you cry
Tonight we'll meet, at the dark end of the street
You and me

You sound a lot like Melora Creager to me (From the band Rasputina). Huge fan of hers and yours. You have so much talent, im happy to hear anything you create.
