Finally I review the code and make a new way to do this .

1. copy file Grid.php form ...app\code\core\Mage\Adminhtml\Block\Customer\Grid.php  to .....app\code\local\Mage\Adminhtml\Block\Customer\Grid.php



2. open the customer 's Grid.php in ....app\code\local\Mage\Adminhtml\Block\Customer\Grid.php

and add the follwing code in _prepareColumns() function

\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\


 $this->addColumn('street1', array(
          'header'    => Mage::helper('customer')->__('Street 1'),
          'index'     => 'entity_id',
 'renderer'=> new Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Customer_Renderer_Street1()
         ));
$this->addColumn('street2', array(
          'header'    => Mage::helper('customer')->__('Street 2'),
          'index'     => 'entity_id',
 'renderer'=> new Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Customer_Renderer_Street2()
         ));


\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\

2. make a directory in  ....app\code\local\Mage\Adminhtml\Block\Customer\     named  Renderer

and create two files in  ....app\code\local\Mage\Adminhtml\Block\Customer\Renderer\

Street1.php
for code

 $customer = Mage::getModel('customer/customer')
 ->load($value); //put customer id here

$data = array();

 foreach ($customer->getAddresses() as $address)
 {

    $data = $address->getStreet(1);

 

 }
 if(empty($data))
 {
 return '';
 }else{
 return $data;
 }



}

}


\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\

and second one is Street2.php

\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\

class Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Customer_Renderer_Street2 extends Mage_Adminhtml_Block_Widget_Grid_Column_Renderer_Abstract
{

public function render(Varien_Object $row)
{
$value =  $row->getData($this->getColumn()->getIndex());

 $customer = Mage::getModel('customer/customer')
 ->load($value); //put customer id here

$data = array();

 foreach ($customer->getAddresses() as $address)
 {

    $data = $address->getStreet(2);

    //var_dump($data);

 }
if(empty($data))
 {
 return '';
 }else{
