Originally written by Willie Dixon, recorded by Howlin Wolf in Chicago, 1960 I am a back door man I am a back door man Well, the men don t know But the little girls understand When everybody s sound asleep I m somewhere making my midnight creep Yes, in the morning, the rooster crow Something tell me, I got to go I am a back door man I am a back door man Well, the men don t know But little girls understand They take me to the doctor, shot full of holes Nurse cried, please save the soul Killed him for murder, first degree Judge s wife cried, let the man go free I am a back door man I am a back door man Well, the men don t know But little girls understand Stand out there, cop s wife cried Don t take him down, rather be dead, six feets in the ground When you come home you can eat pork and beans I eats mo chicken any man seen I am a back door man I am a back door man
