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
