I Hear You Knocking

Words & Music by:

Dave Edmunds

 

A

You went away and left a long time ago.

A

Now you're knocking on my door.

           D                            A

I hear you knocking, but you can't come in.

           D                           E     E7#5

I hear you knocking, go back where you been.

 

I begged you not to go but you said goodbye.

Now, you're telling me all your lies.

I hear you knocking, but you can't come in.

I hear you knocking, go back where you been.

 

INSTRUMENTAL VERSE & CHORUS

 

You better get back to your used to be.

'Cause your kind of love ain't good for me.

I hear you knocking, but you can't come in.

I hear you knocking, go back where you been.

 

I told you way back in '52

That I would never go with you

I hear you knocking, but you can't come in.

I hear you knocking, go back where you been.
