Paying For That Back Street Affair Lyrics - The Queen Of Honky Tonk Angels Four Original Albums [original Recordings Remastered] 2cd Set - Kitty Wells

PAYING FOR THAT BACK STREET AFFAIR 

Writers Jimmy Rule, Billy Wallace 

 

Yes, I thought that you were true when I fell in love with you 

For you told me you always would play square 

Then I learned you had a home , that your wife had not gone wrong 

And our love was just a backstreet affair 

Was too late to say no when I found you'd fooled me so 

For as time passed on I'd learned too much to care 

Though I knew I must atone, but my will was not my own 

I'm paying for that backstreet affair 

You didn't count the cost, you gambled and I lost 

Now I must pay with hours of deep despair 

You still can live your life with a true, forgiving wife 

But I can't live down our backstreet affair 

The love I gave so free is left to torture me 

Though I know it's hopeless and it isn't fair 

But, still I must go on while the gossips spread are wrong 

I'm paying for that backstreet affair
