Back Door Blues (Ode To Langston Hughes)
Good gawd O' lawd
I can't hide it.
Suppose to be doing other things.
Here she go again
Showing her face.
She packed her bags.
Left before the door could close.
Left fa' anotha man.
Lawd A mercy
Here she is again.
Showing her face.
I can't hide it lawd.
Catching the door fo' it close.
Suppose to be doing other things.
Find these old receipts.
Piece my heart here and there.
Good lawd I hid it from ma' self
She claimin' she leavin'
Come back wondering round
Showing her face.
Lawd A mercy
Left before the door could close
Left fa' anotha man
Lawd A mercy
Here she go again
Here I go again
Catching the door fo' it close.
