Back Door Stranger Songtext
von Brownie McGhee

My baby she done somethin, never done before
When I come home, had a pail up on the floor
Won′t you tell me woman, who's that left here while ago?
When I come home, who′s that went out my back door?

Well it must have been a stranger, he did not understand
Went out my back door, padlock in his hand
Now won't you tell me woman, who's that left here while ago?
When I come home, who′s that went out my back door?


Well I ain′t gonna use no ice, gon' buy me a frigidaire
Know that′ll keep the ice man away from here
Now won't you tell me woman, who′s that left here while ago?
When I come home, who's that went out my back door?

Well it must have been a stranger, he did not understand
Went out my backdoor, hat in his hand
Now won′t you tell me woman, who's that left here while ago?
When I come home, who's that went out my back door?

Well I′m gonna buy my groceries, bring ′em home every day
I know that'll keep that groceries boy away
Now won′t you tell me woman, who's that left here while ago?
When I come home, who′s that went out my back door?


Well it must have been a stranger, did not understand
Went out my backdoor, the passage in his hand
Now won't you tell me woman, who′s that left here while ago?
When I come home, who's that went out my back door?
