Slide through the back door With your life strings attached I can see the heavens On my back Can see for miles Open your eyes Can't see what I'm living for My heads so high Slip through the back door With my head in your hands Well I might not see the morning But I got no plans Can see for miles And I can open my eyes Well I can't see what I'm living for Head so high Sway slow, stay low Hey mama, take your cool hand away from me Take it away and let me be Hey mama, take your cool love away from me Take it away and let me bleed in peace Slide through the back door With your life strings attached I can walk the heavens On my back I can see for miles and miles Ain't that grand Well I might not see the morning But I got no plans Slip through the back door With my head in your hands Well I've seen so many things That my mum won't believe This life sure is weird But what else have I to know Well I've done so many things That my folks don't want to know about Sway slow, stay low Hey mama, take your cool hand away from me Take it away and let me be Hey mama, take your cool love away from me Take it away and let me bleed in peace This life sure is weird but what else have i to know
