Backfield in Motion [Original Recording] Lyrics
Backfield in motion, yeah
I'm gonna have to penalize you
Backfield in motion, baby
You know that's against the rules
Offsides and holdin', yeah
You oughta be ashamed of yourself, baby
Offsides and holdin', yeah
Holdin' on to some one else
You know you're cheatin', baby
Fakin' the bout
You know you're balking, baby
(Oh yeah) strike three you're out
And I caught you with
Backfield in motion, yeah
I'm gonna have to penalize you
Backfield in motion, baby
You know that's against the rules
First down, you start cheatin' on me
Second down, I was too blind to see
Third down, you know I love you so
Fourth down, baby I got to let you go
'Cause I caught you with your
Backfield in motion, yeah
I'm gonna have to penalize you
Backfield in motion, baby
You know that's against the rules
Now you will see, Oh yeah
just how I felt
You better believe it, honey
You beat me to the punch, honey
But you hit me below the belt
I'm gonna have to penalize you
Backfield in motion, baby
You know that's against the rules
You oughta be ashamed of yourself, baby
Offsides and holdin', yeah
Holdin' on to some one else
Fakin' the bout
You know you're balking, baby
(Oh yeah) strike three you're out
Backfield in motion, yeah
I'm gonna have to penalize you
Backfield in motion, baby
You know that's against the rules
Second down, I was too blind to see
Third down, you know I love you so
Fourth down, baby I got to let you go
Backfield in motion, yeah
I'm gonna have to penalize you
Backfield in motion, baby
You know that's against the rules
just how I felt
You better believe it, honey
You beat me to the punch, honey
But you hit me below the belt
