I am
a back door man
I am
a back door man
Well the men don't know,
but the little girls understand
When everybody's tryin' to sleep
I'm somewhere making my, midnight creep
Every morning, when the rooster crows
Something tells me, I've got to go
Chorus
I am
back door man
I am
a back door man
Well the, men don't know,
but the little girls understand
They, take me to the doctor, shot full of holes
Nurse cries, please save the soul
Accused him for murder, in the first degree
Judge's wife cried, let the man go free
repeat chorus
The 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
