Back Door Blues Lyrics

I'd rather see my coffin comin'
Comin' through my back door
I'd rather see my coffin
Comin' through my back door
I'd rather see my coffin comin'
Comin' through my back door
Than the girl I'm a-lovin'
She say she don't love me no more

Can you see me leavin'
Babe, I sure left so far
Can you see me leavin'
I feel I sure left so far
Sometimes I'm a-wonderin'
Who you think you are

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
