Never wished to be a rich man
Just needed money for a bike
Didn't try to get an own house
I still am on the hike
Never dreamt to be a dressman
I became a leather kid
And I'd never been unhappy
I'm proud of all I did
Backstreet heroes - sons of black leather
Backstreet heroes - defy all weather
They wanted me a fiddler
I'm now a guitarist
They wanted me to marry
I'd never been that pissed
I'm living in the backstreets
My goods are in a pannier
You call me a sponger
But I'm happy and I'm free
Just needed money for a bike
Didn't try to get an own house
I still am on the hike
Never dreamt to be a dressman
I became a leather kid
And I'd never been unhappy
I'm proud of all I did
Backstreet heroes - sons of black leather
Backstreet heroes - defy all weather
They wanted me a fiddler
I'm now a guitarist
They wanted me to marry
I'd never been that pissed
I'm living in the backstreets
My goods are in a pannier
You call me a sponger
But I'm happy and I'm free
