Backbiters and syndicaters   Standing all around the door   Backbiters and syndicaters   Standing all around the door      An it wished 'bout everyday   Hopin' I'd go way to stay      Almost ruin my happy home   Almost ruin my happy home      I be glad when the day come   You leave these syndicaters alone      I can't understand, little girl   That they don't mean you no good   I can't understand, little girl   That you don't know they don't mean you no good      You'll find these kind of people   In any neighborhood      Backbiters and syndicaters   Can't you see 'em standin' 'round the do'?   Back biters and the syndicaters   Can't you see 'em standin' 'round the do'?      I'm gonna move on down the line   I don't have to be bothered no more
