"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, playing the accordion and recorder.
Covers of the song appeared on alt-country band Golden Smog's debut EP 'On Golden Smog', and on Social Distortion's album Prison Bound, and by Bobby Darin's album "Inside Out".
The theme of the song is taken directly from the movie "Back Street", originally starring Irene Dunne.
