Back Against the Wall

Back Against the Wall - B.J. Thomas

They held me up as long as they could

All those people at my feet yeah oh

I was so smug in my prime

Up at the height of my conceit yeah oh

I thought I would never fall

Oh I got to tell you all

I I got my back up against the wall

Yes I do this ain't the first time

I got my back up against the wall yeah

It's been a long fight

I didn't know I'd have to make no oh oh

And I'm so afraid

It's gonna be more than I can take now baby

I think you know what I mean

I thought I'd never fall

Oh I got to tell you all

I got my back up against the wall

I do know you know I ain't joking now

I I got my back oh

Sometimes I learn that all I try

Are you still take the fall not a man oh oh

Just like a lot of good people yeah

They love me all around the world oh

I can't understand you girl oh no yeah

I wonder why the pure in heart

Oh they got to have a judgment day

I wonder why

I wonder what the lord has made oh oh

Now that he plans to throw away wake you know

I wonder oh what did he really say

I thought I would never fall

Oh I got to tell everybody now

I I got my back against the wall

Nah nah nah you know oh yeah sometimes

Sometimes I get myself against the wall

Sometimes no matter how hard I try

I still take a fall yeah oh

Sometimes you find yourself down on the street

I get my back againt the wall

Sometimes you find yourself when I'm freaking

I get my back against the wall

Last night I started to cry

And I cried

I get my back againt the wall

Last night I started to pray

And I prayed all night long

I get my back against the wall

I got to the Jesus

For all my life long

Yes Jesus

Stay with me Jesus oh

Stay with me yeah
