Back Door Man

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

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

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

I am, the backdoor man

I am, the backdoor man

Well, the men don't know

But the little girls they understand

I am, the backdoor man

I am, the backdoor man

Well, the men don't know

But the little girls they understand

I am

I am

I-I-I am

The backdoor man
