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 [Chorus:] 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 [Chorus:] 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)
