Back Door Stranger

Take my chances, rather go to jail

Than see the eyes of a coward runnin' loose and well

He don't care, he couldn't give a damn

Deprived of his victim, he's a ruthless man

He waits in the shadows 'til the man is gone

He moves to the door, now she's all alone

Far as you could see, that's her only way

She fears for her life and what her family would say

Back door stranger

A fair warning he's out tonight

A back door stranger

We gotta stop him if the chance is right

You read in the paper, most any day

'Bout back door stranger and his evil ways

The law can't judge because he pleads insane

It's a sign of the times that we got to change

You ask my opinion, he ain't half a man

He's as cold as a snake about to strike again

It's a slap in the face that we tolerate

The pain that he causes worries us grey

Take my chances, rather go to jail

Than see the eyes of a coward runnin' loose and well

He don't care, he couldn't give a damn

Deprived of his victim, he's a ruthless man

You ask my opinion, got to make a stand

He's cold as a snake, gonna strike again

It's a slap in the face that we tolerate

The pain that he causes, it worries us grey

[Chorus Twice]
