The back room


In the back room (in the back room)
In the back room (in the back room)
I waited for you (waited for you)
Ya waited for me (waited for me)

Rain came down, pitter-pat
Say, what you think, its raining outside
You said, so what
You turned the record player on, had a smoke
Stood up, walked across to the joint in a cloud of mist
Couldnt resist

A kitty stepped in the hall and she rapped the door
Found the key in the letter box, she turned the door
Walked into the room and said, whats goin on?
I just got back from down the road
Gotta couple a bottles of wine, somethin to turn you on

What-a you think of that? (think of that, girl)
(think of that girl)
I said, sit down cat, pull up a seat, youre soakin wet
Take off your coat and hat, wipe your feet on the mat

In the back room (in the back room)
In the back room (in the back room)
I waited for you (waited for you)
Ya waited for me (waited for me)

I said, what time is it charlie, where did we go all day?
Seem to get nowhere and do nothin but sit lookin at each other
He said, I know, I been doin the same thing for weeks
I look at the clock and all of a sudden Im hypnotized
It speaks to me, it goes tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock, ah-huh the kid he said, I dont know what you guys do but I been workin
So hard, lately that I can just only fall asleep in bed
So he played some more sounds and grooved a while
Somebody brought out some cherry wine, cherry wine
And we talked about what was goin on in the music world
And other things
Ha-ha-ha, ha-ha

The rain outside came down like it came never before
Down, came down, it came, rain rain rain
And I said, baby what time is it, what time is it, tell me what time is it?
Ah, four-thirty

So I peeked round the corner, the blind
An there ya go, theres another girl thats comin home from school
Lookin so cool, just learned her as to zs
And said,
Hey man dont look funny, all the little girls comin home from school
And theyre sittin, talkin and drinkin and all them other funny things
A-ha-ha-ha

And charlie said to me, ya know what? I said, what?
He said, man you gotta go out there and do somethin for yourself
Feel like you wanna make it or else you gonna be sittin round here like,
Nothin
I said, youre right, I said youre so right
He said, I know ha
I said, do ya?
Said, you know youre cuttin records, cuttin records right
You come through that
An just through all the time youre gonna be out on the road
Im out on the backseat man, on the, on the highway
And the colors are gonna run
All of a sudden dont ya feel safe the next gig, you gotta make it
I said, yeah I feel safe

I said, yeah you know I cant stay here all the time as much as Id like to
But, I just learned about all day and all night
And dig sounds, and go down to the river
And once the artists go through the motions
Gotta do my thing, aah-ah (in the back room) ah-ah
Gotta do my thing (in the back room)
In the back room (in the back room)
Fades-
In the back room (in the back room)

Biografia

Morrison va via di casa a 15 anni per intraprendere la sua carriera musicale. Suona in diversi locali con complessi skiffle e rock and roll prima di entrare a far parte del gruppo dei Monarchs, con i quali partecipa ad una tournée in giro per l'Europa. Nel 1964 fonda, infine, il gruppo dei Them del quale diviene il leader. La band raccoglie numerosi successi, il maggiore dei quali è Gloria, che sarebbe divenuto uno degli standard del rock e che verrà incisa da numerosi altri artisti. Morrison diviene sempre più insoddisfatto dell'utilizzo dei musicisti in studio, e lascia la formazione dopo un tour negli USA nel 1966. Ritorna a Belfast, deciso a lasciare il mondo della musica. Il produttore dei Them, Bert Berns, lo persuade a ritornare a New York e a registrare materiale da solista per l'etichetta Bang Records. Da queste prime session emerge una delle sue canzoni più famose, Brown-eyed girl, che raggiunge il numero 10 delle classifiche USA nel 1967. L'album generato da quelle ses
