Status Quo - Backwater Lyrics

Lyrics Backwater - Status Quo



Down at Backwater junction rolling down the line
In the dark early morning I heard the one-forty-nine
I was walking down the highway, needed somewhere to go
A lady laid beside me and she invited me home
She led me cold, tired and hungry down the backwater road
In a house on the corner looking over the track
I woke up with a fever and a pain in my back
She was lying there beside me, my fever started to grow
Had a funny feeling but the lady said no
My lover needs a doctor down the Backwater Road
Whatcha lookin′ for, whatcha lookin' for
Lady do you know what cha′ lookin' for
Was I wrong to play along?
Lady was I right or lady was I wrong?
Backwater doctor, you've got me breathing in time
It′s ten-thirty in the morning and I′m feeling alright
I went back to my lady but I wasn't to know
Lady left this morning and she′s not coming home
I was cold when she left me down the Backwater Road
