Standing at the back door

 

 

Man the neighborhood is talkin'

I pretend I haven't heard a word they said

There's a Pentecostal movement

Keepin' daily watch for daily sin

Upstairs you're making up your face

And the places that you've been

 

He's standin' at the backdoor goin' out

I'm at the front door comin' in

Who will it be tonight?

Who will you see tonight?

When you close your eyes

Will you be lovin' me

Or will I be just be the stranger in disguise

 

Man the neighborhood's still talkin'

I pretend I haven't heard a word they said

You had no way of knowing

Last night was the last night in our bed

I wonder if you'll need me

When you're down on one man

And it's him

 

I'm standing at the backdoor going out

And I ain't never coming back again

Who will it be tonight

Who will you see tonight

When you close your eyes

Will you be lovin' him

Or will I just be the stranger in disguise
