"Back Street Girl" is a song by the British rock band The Rolling Stones. It was written by Mick Jagger and Keith Richards. It first appeared on the UK version of their 1967 album Between the Buttons but was not included on the US version, being replaced by the hit singles "Let's Spend The Night Together" and "Ruby Tuesday". It was first released in the US on the 1967 album Flowers. The song showcases Brian Jones at his best musically, playing the accordion and recorder while Mick sings in a soulful and soft tune. The lyrics have been regarded as controversial for much the same reasons as another Rolling Stones song, "Under My Thumb". The lyrics deal with having power over a girl. For example, Jagger sings: "Don't want you part of my world, just you be my backstreet girl". Although it was never released as a single, Back Street Girl is known as one of the highlights on the UK version of Between the Buttons. Rock is a form of popular music from the mid 20th century which typically features a vocal melody (often with vocal harmony) that is supported by accompaniment of electric guitars, a bass guitar, and drums, often with a strong back beat. ...
