Backside Of Paradise - Tony Joe White

Written by：Tony Joe White/Leann White

They say I was born on a stormy night

Jammin'

To the blues

My mama thought that I was a good luck charm

But I think that I was touched with the hoodoo

I must have been a swamp doctor's sacrifice

'Cause I'm on the backside

Of paradise

All out of rhythm in my snakeskin shoes

A victim

Of the dance

A medicine man gave me something for my nerves

But I think it was an aphrodisiac

Suspended animation with my temperature on the rise

I'm on the backside

Of paradise

I can look out but I can't see within

Can't face what's behind the mask

On top of the world with you under my skin

Moving too fast

She's a hot blooded octaroon with a heart cold as

Ice

I'm on the backside

Of paradise

I'm on the backside

Of paradise
