"Libran by the Back Door"


Brian Lee Jones and Natalie McDonald
Sizzling-hot songwriter Brian Lee Jones is easily New Jersey's best-kept musical secret! While neither of us is actually a Libran (we're both Sagittarians with Virgo Moons), collaborating on this track was a dream come true. Brian produced and recorded a plaintive version of my song which successfully evokes both T. Rex and the Beatles at the same time! Brian's brother, Perry Jones, is the subject of another song I recorded entitled "Lofty Skies Suite (Perry's On Patrol)".


I've just seen something That was done with mirrors A seduction production At the speed of light Never saw the train a-comin' I was too close to the tracks I guess I should've known better But it's too late It's too late to look back He's a Libran Libran by the back door He's a Libran Libran by the back door
I've been known to take some chances So I tried to play his game My cards were on the table I thought I had the winning hand The odds were stacked against me Seems like I had a lot at stake I let the chips go down But I'll never I'll never make the same mistake He's a Libran Libran by the back door He's a Libran Libran by the back door
He was fast on the draw He shot me down in flames Now he's back in the saddle With a new notch on his gun I'll never settle the score He'll be gone by sundown He's running out of bullets And he's running out of town He's a Libran Libran by the back door He's a Libran Libran by the back door
