[Chorus]
B B7
I am a back door man,
B B7
I am a back door man,
B
Well the men don't know,
B
But the little girls understand.
[Verse 1]
B
When everybody's sound asleep,
B
I'm somewhere making my midnight creep,
B
Yes in the morning, the rooster crow,
B
Something tells me I got to go.
[Chorus]
B B7
I am a back door man,
B B7
I am a back door man,
B
Well the men don't know,
B
But the little girls understand.
[Verse 2]
B
They take me to the doctor,
B
Shot full o' holes,
B
Nurse cried, please save the soul,
B
Killed him for murder, first degree,
B
Judge's wife cried, let the man go free.
[Chorus]
B B7
I am a back door man,
B B7
I am a back door man,
B
Well the men don't know,
B
But the little girls understand.

When everybody’s trying to sleep,

I’m somewhere making my midnight dream,

Every morning the rooster crows,
