I Hear You Knocking

I Hear You Knocking - Smiley Lewis

You went away and left me long time ago

And you come back knocking on my door

I hear you knocking

But you can't come in

I hear you knocking

Go back where you've been

I begged you not to go but you said goodbye

And now you're come back telling all your lies

I hear you knocking

But you can't come in

I hear you knocking

Go back where you've been

I told you way back in '52

I would never go with you

I hear you knocking

But you can't come in

I hear you knocking

Go back where you've been

You'd better get back to your used-to-be

Beause your love you good to me

I hear you knocking

But you can't come in

I hear you knocking

Go back where you've been
