I am, a back door man
I am, a back door man
Well, the men don't know
But the little girls understand

When ev'rybody's tryin to sleep
I'm somewhere makin
My midnight creep
Ev'ry morning the rooster crow
Something tell me, I've got to go

I am, back door man
I am, a back door man
Well the men don't know

But little girls understand

They take me to the doctor
Shot full a-holes
Nurse cried, 'Please save his soul'
Killed him for murder first degree
Judge wife cried, 'Let the man go free'

I am, a back door man
I am, back door man
Well, the men don't know
But little girls understand

Said now 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

I am, back door man
I am, back door man
Well, darling.
