Back Door Man

Lyrics

I-I-I am the, the backdoor man I-I-I am, the backdoor man Well, the men don't know But the little girls they understand When everybody is-a tryin' to sleep I'm-a somewhere makin' my midnight creep An ev'ry mo'nin when the rooster crows He's tellin' me that it's the time to go I am, the backdoor man I am, the backdoor man Well, the men don't know But the little girls they understand [Instrumental] Well, they took me to the doctor Shot full of holes The nurse she cried, "Save his soul" I was 'cused of murder in first degree The judge wife cried, "Let the man go free" I am, the backdoor man I am, the backdoor man Well, the men don't know But the little girls they understand [Instrumental] I was accused a-murder in the first degree The judge wife cried, "Let the man go free" The cop's wife cried, "Don't take him down I'd-a rather be in six feet of ground" I am, the backdoor man I am, the backdoor man Well, the men don't know But the little girls they understand [Instrumental] I am, the backdoor man I am, the backdoor man Well, the men don't know But the little girls they understand [Instrumental] I am, the backdoor man I am, the backdoor man Well, the men don't know But the little girls they understand [Instrumental] I am I am I-I-I am The backdoor man
