Backdoor Man

Letra

[Intro] Hey, babe Listen close [Verse 1] I slip through the side door When the whole town’s asleep Got a pocket full of secrets And promises I keep You don’t need a front-door number You don’t need a brass key Just leave a little room, babe Save that room for me [Chorus] I’m the backdoor man Hey, babe, I’m the backdoor man When the daylight asks questions I’m gone before it can I’m the backdoor man Hey, babe, I’m the backdoor man You know where to find me When you need a steady hand [Verse 2] Your porch light’s burning low now Your curtains moving slow I hear you tap twice softly That’s all I need to know No fuss and no commotion No names beneath the moon I’ll come in through the back way And leave before noon [Chorus] I’m the backdoor man Hey, babe, I’m the backdoor man When the daylight asks questions I’m gone before it can I’m the backdoor man Hey, babe, I’m the backdoor man You know where to find me When you need a steady hand [Bridge] Keep your secrets in a shoebox Keep your promises down low If you want me, tap twice, babe And I’ll know where to go [Guitar Solo] [Final Chorus] I’m the backdoor man Hey, babe, I’m the backdoor man No need to call my name out I’ll come when I can I’m the backdoor man Hey, babe, I’m the backdoor man Slip away together Before the morning understands [Outro] Hey, babe I’m gone before the daylight Backdoor man
