ROOMFUL OF BLUES
"Backseat Blues"
(McKinley Odom)

Once upon a time
When I was very young and loose
I used to know a girl
Who had the backseat blues

I used to call her "baby"
She was so fine and sweet
And baby's favorite place
Was my Chevy's back seat

Someone must have told her
Must have showed her something new
'Cause when she got me in the back
She knew just what to do

She's got a cutesy little body
A wiggle in her body when she walks
Oh, and everybody's watchin'
Checkin' out her top to bottom when she walks

Oh, but baby wasn't ashamed
When she got alone with me
How I always think about her
When I'm riding in the backseat

Backseat blues
Every time I think of you
And the things we used to do
Ridin' in your backseat

Backseat blues
Every time I think of you
And the things we used to do
That's where I had fun with you

Now long ago when I was young
And used to act a fool
I had a pretty thing
Used to show me what to do

I used to call her "baby"
I used to call her mine
And Lord I loved her body
She was so sweet and fine

When she get her motor runnin'
Baby like to drive so fast
Drivin' through the country
Till we run outta gas

And baby only come around
Maybe once or twice a week
And baby only come around
Three or four times a week
Oh, but when my baby comes
I know she gonna be so good to me

I get the backseat blues
Every time I think of you
And the things we used to do
Ridin' in your backseat

Backseat blues
Every time I think of you
And the things we used to do
That's where I had fun with you

I know that if we take a ride
And baby's sitting by my side
Oh, it won't be very long
Before my oil pressure rise

And when she's all revved up
My baby likes to ride the bumps
She keeps some extra tires
And some goodies in the trunk

I get the backseat blues
Every time I think of you
And the things we used to do
Ridin' in your backseat

Backseat blues
Every time I think of you
And the things we used to do
That's where I had fun with you

Backseat blues
Every time I think of you
And the things we used to do
Ridin' in your backseat

Backseat blues
Every time I think of you
And the things we used to do
That's where I had fun with you
