John Lee Hooker – Backstabbers Lyrics

Blues

Backbiter syndicators, can you see 'em hanging 'round my door
Backbiter syndicators, can you see 'em hanging 'round my door
Stand, stand, stand and watch me, every day I leave home
Backstabbers, backstabbers, have almost ruined my home
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
They almost broke up my house
I got to the place, yes really
Can't tell my wife what to do no more, no more, no more
Have mercy
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
I think I'll move on down the line
I believe, I believe, I believe I'll move on down the line
If it make any sense to me, babe, what you talking 'bout
I'll walk right back in that door again, with my suitcase in my hand
If you got to try, baby, try before I go
You got to try, baby, got to try, want to try before I go
Now baby, if it make any kind of sense to me, babe
Make any kind of sense to me
I'll walk right through that door again, with my suitcase in my hand
I'll walk back in that door again, with my suitcase in my hand
If it make any sense to me, I'll do that, babe
I will, I will, I will
