Backs to the Wall Lyrics


Can't you see the promised land

Empty glass,a gun in your hand

Feel you can't go on no more

Looking out towards the door

Contemplate your dealy foe

When they strike you'll never know

Hope someday you'll find a friend

Make sure your life don't end too soon

Oh you're a demon

You're a devil in disguise

No one to tell you it's bad

No use believin' that you're foolin' the people

Everybody knows that you're mad

Oooooooooo when you're standing there you're

twelve feet tall

Better keep it  backs to the wall

Backs to the wall

Backs to the wall

Make me a deal & I'll give you a try

Know tgat you are a man on the run

Back on the streets

I hear that my crimes

Are in the sight of a gun

Oooooooooo  when you're standing there you're

twelve feet tall

Better keep it  back to the wall

Backs to the wall

Backs to the wall

Can't you see the promised land

Empty glass,in your hand

Feel you can't go on no more

Looking out towards the door

Contemplate your deadly foe

When they'll strike you'll never know

Hope someday you'll find a friend

Make sure your life don't end

No use denying that you've never killed a man

No use sayin' that you're good

You're a man that's wanted

And if you don't keep your head down

End up in a pool of blood

Oooooooooo  when you're standing there you're

twelve feet tall

Better keep it  backs to the wall

Backs to the wall

Backs to the wall

All the peace is broken

By a hail of molten lead

Chances are a million to one

Once again you've fooled 'em

Like you can't even care

Waiting until your chances are gone

Oooooooooo  when you're standing there you're

twelve feet tall

Bette keep it  backs to the wall

Backs to the wall Backs to the wall

Can't you see the promised land

Empty galss in your hand

Feel you can't go on no more

Looking out towards the door

Contemplate your deadly foe

When they strike you never know

Hope someday you'll find a friend

Make sure your life don't end
