B.J. Thomas – Back Against The Wall lyrics

They held up as long as they could All those people at my feet Yeah I was so smug in my prime Up at the height of my conceit Oh, I thought I would never fall Oh, I got to tell you all I got my back up against the wall You know this ain't the first time I got my back up against the wall It's been a long fight I didn't know I'd have to make no And I'm so afraid It's gonna be more than I can take now baby You know what I mean I thought I'd never fall Oh, I got to you all I got my back up against the wall I ain't jokin' y'all I got my back against the wall Sometimes I find myself with my back against the wall I got my back against the wall Just like a lot of good people now They love me all around the world I can't understand you girl I wonder why the pure in heart Oh, they got to have a judgment day I wonder why And I wonder what the Lord has made Now that he plans to throw away I wonder, what did he really say I thought I would never fall Oh, I got to tell you all I got my back against the wall Sometimes you find yourself down on the street Yeah you do I got my back against the wall Sometimes no matter how hard you try You still take a fall, oh yeah I got my back against the wall Last night I started to cry And I cried all night long Yes I did I got my back against the wall Last night I started to pray And I prayed all night long And that's when I got that feeling y'all Down in my soul It's just a part of life It's just a part of your life Explain Request ×
