Allman Brothers Band - Stand Back
By Gregg Allman And Berry Oakley

I Recall Once Upon A Time,
Livin Was So Easy And I Felt So Fine.
But, My, My, My Right Before My Very Eyes,
Satan Came With Fire To Burn Me,
Wouldn't Listen When They Warned Me.
A Dagger In My Back While She's Calling Me Honey,
Wouldn't Stand Back, For Neither Love Nor Money.
Thirty Minutes After My Ship Set Sail,
She Put Up A Sign And My House Began To Wail.
But, Why, Why, Why I Couldn't See It In My Little Girl's Eyes?
She Had Such A Way To Fool Me, Lord She Had A Way To Fool Me.
And I Would Ask The Woman, "can You Find It In Yourself To Please Stand Back?
You Ain't Gonna Rule Me."
Just When All Began To Fade,
I Reached Out, Threw The Ace Of Spades.
I Put Her On A Train To The Everglades.
Now That It's All Over And Gone,
Somehow I Just Don't Feel So Alone.
But, Lie, Lie, Lie It Seemed Like Such A Waste Of Time.
She Did Not Ever Seem To Know Me,
But, Now It's Much Too Late To Show Me.
But, If I Ever See That Woman Walkin Down The Street I'll Just Stand Back,
And Try To Move Away Slowly.
Oh, Yeah.
