I am a back door man
Nurse cried, "Please save his soul
"Don't take him down, rather be dead
Every morning the rooster crow
But little girls understand
Killed him for murder, first degree
I am a back door man
Well the men don't know
But little girls understand
Stand out there, cop's wife cried
Well the men don't know
When everybody's sound asleep
Something tell me, I got to go
They take me to the doctor, shot full o' holes
I eats mo' chicken any man seen
Well the men don't know
But the little girls understand
I am a back door man
Six feets in the ground when you come home
Judge's wife cried, "Let the man go free!"
You can eat pork and beans"
I'm somewhere making my midnight creep
I am a back door man
I am a back door man
