Intro: I am a back door man I am a back door man Well the men don't know, but the little girls understand Verso 1: When everybody's tryin' to sleep I'm somewhere making my midnight creep Every morning, when the rooster crow Something tell me, I got to go I am a back door man I am a back door man Well the men don't know, but the little girls understand Verso 2: They take me to the doctor, shot full o' holes Nurse cried, please save the soul Killed him for murder, first degree Judge's wife cried, let the man go free I am a back door man I am a back door man Well the men don't know, but the little girls understand Verso 3: Stand out there Cop's wife cried, don't take him down Rather be dead, six feets in the ground When you come home you can eat pork and beans I eats mo' chicken, any man seen Outro I am a back door man I am a back door man
