Mel Street
King Malachi Street (October 21, 1935 – October 21, 1978), commonly known as Mel Street, was an American country music singer.
Biography
Street was born in Rowe, Virginia to a coal mining family. Publications cite his year of birth as 1933, although his family maintains that he was born in 1935. He began performing on western Virginia and West Virginia radio shows at the age of sixteen. Street subsequently worked as a radio tower electrician in Ohio and as a nightclub performer in the Niagara Falls area. He moved back to West Virginia in 1963 to open up an auto body shop.
From 1968 to 1972, Street hosted his own show on a Bluefield, West Virginia television station. He recorded his first single, "Borrowed Angel," in 1970 for a small regional record label. A larger label, Royal American Records, picked it up in 1972, and it became a top-10 Billboard hit. He recorded the biggest hit of his career, "Lovin' on Back Streets", in 1972.
Mel’s last television appearance was on national television in 1977. He performed his 1976 hit “I Met A Friend Of Yours Today” on one of Nashville’s favorite TV shows “That Good Ole Nashville Music”.

by: Mel Street(D.Bartholomew / A.Domino)
I like the way you walk, I like the way you talk, let
Me hold your hand try to understand
I want a boy like you, tell my troubles to. Don't
Be afraid, you heard what I said.
Let the four winds blow, let them blow, let them blow.
From the east to the west
I love you the best
Let the four winds blow, let them blow, let them blow.
From the east to the west
I love you the best
I like the way you walk, I like the way you talk, let
Me hold your hand, try to understand
I want a boy like you, tell my troubles to. Don't
Be afraid, you heard what I said.
Let the four winds blow, let them blow, let them blow.
From the east to the west
I love you the best
