Diamond, Neil - I Walk A Crooked Street Lyrics






Where I am, what I am
You're the only reason
Held me up, filled my cup,
Had the faith in me and love....

Owe it all to you, knowin' we're in love
There's nothing I can't do
And I'm not afraid to lose my way
'Cause if I walk a crooked street
You're there to lead me home

I've been through bad times
And some times worse
And till I met you 'happy' was just a word
But that all changed the day you came
Now if I walk a crooked street
You're there to lead me home

[Guitar instrumental]

And I'm not afraid to lose my way
'Cause if I walk a crooked street
You're there to lead me home
If I walk a crooked street
You're there to lead me home

    Beautiful thing here is that, it doesn't have to be sung to, or about a girl or a lover.

  15. B.... M....

    Thanks for posting this rare track! I had a transfer from Double Gold vinyl but it didn't sound so great. Nice to have a better sounding copy!

  16. s.... ....

    I can not CD the whole LP as I do not have a record turn table anymore but I do have this song and a couple of other oldies of his from this era in MP3 format.

  17. s.... ....

    Thanks for posting this I have it on one his albums from the mid 60's

  18. t.... ....

    Muy buenissimo! Gracias!

    Discovered "Crooked Street" years ago while playing his Double Gold album. Too bad the record companies have never made a complete compilation of his old material, as even The Bang Years is missing two songs.

  20. A.... D....

    @mrmjb1960 Ahhhhh Like no one would recognize him with the beard!!! HA HA Love these "back stories". Thanks mrmjb!!! Appreciate the response. I've heard that at the time of his divorce, HIS was the most exensive settlement for "the time".

  21. M.... B....

    @LeeLeeDe1 Well,his former wife was looking for him for something,so,to avoid her,he'd grown a beard to throw her off until he'd could straighten it out..the Lawsuit was later dropped.

  22. A.... D....

    @mrmjb1960 I am an oldies trivia person and found your comment very interesting. Could you tell me more about the "Hirsute look being done to avoid a lawsuit by an ex". Thanks.

  23. p.... ....

    Love Love This Song!

  24. M.... B....

    The Hirsute look was done to avoid a Lawsuit pending by his then-wife..it only appeared on the original version of "Brother Love's Travelling Salvation Show" Lp,Issued in 1968..the cover was modified in 1970,with the addition of "Sweet Caroline" which was not on the Original Lp.
