[Chorus]
D# D#7
I am a back door man,
D# D#7
I am a back door man,
D#
Well the men don't know,
D#
But the little girls understand.
[Verse 1]
D#
When everybody's sound asleep,
D#
I'm somewhere making my midnight creep,
D#
Yes in the morning, the rooster crow,
D#
Something tells me I got to go.
[Chorus]
D# D#7
I am a back door man,
D# D#7
I am a back door man,
D#
Well the men don't know,
D#
But the little girls understand.
[Verse 2]
D#
They take me to the doctor,
D#
Shot full o' holes,
D#
Nurse cried, please save the soul,
D#
Killed him for murder, first degree,
D#
Judge's wife cried, let the man go free.
[Chorus]
D# D#7
I am a back door man,
D# D#7
I am a back door man,
D#
Well the men don't know,
D#
But the little girls understand.
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
D#
When everybody’s trying to sleep,
D#
I’m somewhere making my midnight dream,
D#
Every morning the rooster crows,
D#
Something tells me I got to go.

I am a back door man,

I am a back door man.
