Lyrics:

Backdoor man
Oh, don't you leave me
Backdoor man
For if you leave me I'll get in
A New York state of mind

Backdoor man
Stay till the morning, ten to one
Husband won't show in before dawn
We got a lot of time

They say
I don't care 'bout what they say
You know my ins
And you will learn 'bout my out
The moon is like a flashlight
When you blend in with the night

Backdoor man
Oh, don't you leave me
I'll feel down
I'll be day dreamin', prayin' hard
You were back in no time

Backdoor man
When the game's over, when we're through
You'll run for cover, here they come
The New York states of mind

They say
I don't care 'bout what they say
You know my ins
And you will learn 'bout my out
The moon is like a flashlight
When you blend in with the night

Backdoor man
Oh, don't you leave me
Backdoor man
For if you leave me I'll get in
A New York state of mind

Backdoor man
