When Our Backs Are Against the Wall - Billy Dean

When Our Backs Are Against the Wall Lyrics

We started out in a double wide
Had our clothes hangin' out on the line
We even had your mom and dad co-sign
We used to ride 'round downtown singing
"Money can't buy you love", when the times were rough
We just kept on going when the goin' got toughCan't shake us, or break us, separate us
We survived it all
We're at our best when our backs are against the wallIt ain't always been a honeymoon
Sometimes it feels like we're dancin' to different tunes
That's when you and me just need a little breathin' room
But when we're rockin' don't come knockin'
We wanna be left alone all night long
Makin' up till it feels like home sweet homeCan't shake us, or break us, separate us
We survived it all
We're at our best when our backs are against the wallWe start with a kiss there in the hall
And end up holdin' each other tight
With our backs up against the wallCan't shake us, or break us, separate us
We survived it all

We're at our best when our backs are against the wall
