Lyrics
(What they do) (They smilin' in your face) All the time they want to take your place The back stabbers (Back stabbers) (They smilin' in your face) All the time they want to take your place The back stabbers (Back stabbers) All you fellows who have someone and you really care, yeah, yeah Then it's all of you fellows who better beware, yeah, yeah Somebody's out to get your lady A few of your buddies they sure look shady Blades are long, clenched tight in their fist Aimin' straight at your back And I don't think they'll miss (What they do) (They smilin' in your face) All the time they want to take your place The back stabbers (Back stabbers) I keep gettin' all these visits from my friends, yeah, what they doin' to me They come to my house again and again and again and again, yeah So are they there to see my woman? I don't even be home, but they just keep on comin' What can I do to get on the right track? I wish they'd take some of these knives out my back (What they do) (They smilin' in your face) All the time they want to take your place The back stabbers (Back stabbers) Ha-ah-ah-ah-ah Low-down, dirty (What they do) (They smilin' in your face) Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes tell lies (Back stabbers) (They smilin' in your face) I don't need low-down, dirty bastards (Back stabbers) (They smilin' in your face) Da-da, da-da-da, da-da-da-da (Back stabbers) Might be your neighbor (They smilin' in your face) Your next door neighbor, yeah (Back stabbers)
