Backdoor
Nate Dogg · Music & Me [2001]
When your days get lonely (Days get lonely)
When your nights get cold (Nights get cold)
When the rains starts poring (Rains starts pouring)
when your man ain't home (Man ain't home)
You can call me baby (Call me baby)
You can let me know (Let me know)
You ain't had none lately (Had none lately)
Let me in the backdoor (Let me in your backdoor)
When he walks out the door
When he acts like he don't want you no more
You can do the same thang
You can play at this game
With this love in forehold
He got you doing his chores
Might as well be with me
You ain't nobody's slave
Chorus x2
He ain't never gone change
He still be palying his game
You can do the same thang
Girl I won't say a thang
If you won't tell I won't tell
We living life, what the hell
We both want the same thang
Ain't no raison to complain
Chorus x 4
