Behind Closed Doors

Dolly Parton · Treasures [Rising Tide] [1996]

(Kenny O'Dell)



My baby makes me proud, Lord, don't he make me proud

He never makes a scene by hangin' all over me in a crowd

'Cause people like to talk, Lord, don't they love to talk

But when they turn out the lights I know he'll be leavin' with me.



Chorus:

And when we get behind closed doors

Then we let out hair hang down

And he makes me glad that I'm a girl

Oh, no one knows what goes on behind closed doors.



--- Instrumental ---



My baby makes me smile, Lord, don't he make me smile

I'm never far away or too tired to say I want to

I'm purring like a kitten when he's out in public with me

But when they turn out the lights he brings out the tiger in me.



Chorus:

And when we get behind closed doors

Then we let out hair hang down

And he makes me glad that he's my man

Oh, and no one knows what goes on behind closed doors.



Behind closed doors...
