BEG#mABE 12/8 time seemed to her to be some sort of life of crime G#mABE With the handcuffs and the billy clubs coming down on me She said rock 'n roll don't give her nothing but bad dreams
G#mA So she planned my funeral and left me for dead G#mA A single corpse in a double bed G#MA But now she's standing on my front porch B She goes knock knock knock knock
Knock knock knock knock
EBE She come a-knockin at my door EBE Now she come a-knockin at my door EBE Now her key it don't fit EBE I'm not gonna let her in Now she come a-knockin at my door Now she come a-knockin at my door Now her key it don't fit I'm not gonna let her in
Now wouldn't you lookie here She's got a perfume bottle and a fancy clothes And a ribbon in her hair Well she ain't bad-lookin', and I'll give her that But she ain't all there And her body ain't as sexy as her underwear Her stomach ain't big enough I suppose To eat up all the mean words that she spoke She gonna try and ring quiet but the doorbell's broke She gonna hafta knock knock knock, I said You're gonna knock knock knock, yeah
She come a-knockin at my door Now she come a-knockin at my door Now her key it don't fit I'm not gonna let her in Now she come a-knockin at my door Now she come a-knockin at my door Now her key it don't fit I'm not gonna let her in
She come a knock-knock, let me in She come a knock-knock, let me in She come a knock-knock, let me in I said no-o-o, She come a knock-knock, let me in She come a knock-knock, let me in She come a knock-knock, please Oh good God please let me in No no no no no... Not by the hair of my chinny-chin-chin Would I ever consider to begin to let you in
