They smile in your face
All the time they want to take your place
The back stabbers, back stabbers
They smile in your face
All the time they want to take your place

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 smile 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 off my back
What they do?
They smile in your face
All the time they want to take your place
The back stabbers, back stabbers
Low down, dirty
What they do?
They smile in your face
Smiling faces, smiling faces sometimes tell lies
They smile in your face
I don't need low down dirty ba*tards
They smile in your face
Back stabbers
Might be your neighbor, your next door neighbor, yeah
