backwood's girl - the sir douglas quintet lyrics
[verse 1]
she left the college cryin’
he didn’t understand her no more
now, she floats around the house
doesn’t get much anymore
[verse 2]
she’s a queen of all the ladies
but her soul’s in deep despair
but she floats around the place
doesn’t even have a care
[bridge 1]
she used to be the queen of all the boys in town
she used to be the queen of the ball whenever she’s around
[verse 3]
but she left the college cryin’
’cause he just couldn’t understand her no more
now, she floats around the house
doesn’t get much anymore
[verse 4]
she’s a queen of all the ladies
but her pride begins to show
she’s just another honky*tonk, she’s just up in the wall
she’s just kind of, kind of backwoods girl
[bridge 2]
oh, baby, don’t you understand
if it weren’t for backwoods girls where’d be the backwoods men?
[verse 5]
what you gonna try? what you gonna do to me, baby, when i go?
if you think i’ll be around (hold it now)
and you’ll know it’s your clown
when the snow hits the ground i will be back
[bridge 3]
she’s just a backwoods girl, that’s all she is
and she makes this backwoods man awful, awful good
[verse 6]
she’s a queen of all the ladies
don’t want to let him down
most of all she’s my lady
and she followed me around
[verse 7]
she found the time to write me
just to let me know you ran away
but billie sue was only twelve
when her folks went away
[verse 8]
they didn’t understand
what it took to make her groove
and then she went to california
with nothin’, nothin’ to lose
[verse 9]
she arrived at the greyhound station
the corner of 7th and market in san francisco that night
the night, it sure was right
right there tonight
[verse 10]
well, you see this backwoods girl
she wanted to unfold the mystery
as she walked down
the san francisco streets at night
[bridge 4]
she was just a little girl that n0body understood
they just said, “she’ll go through her changes some day”
[verse 11]
but you know as well as i do
that she’s her mind in tune
and it makes no difference to her
if her birthday comes in june
[bridge 5]
oh well, she’s just a backwoods girl in the city
oh, she’s just a backwoods girl in the city, lord
[verse 12]
but will you please come back to me
love this backwoods man one more time?
please come back, back, back, back to the woods
and love me one more time
[outro]
she’s just a back, back, backwoods girl
(backwoods, that’s what she gotta claim to fame
good night)
