Johnny C. Lately - Knockin' on Your Back Door Lyrics




I been thinkin' for long time
Ever since I made up my mind
I been countin' all my chickens
Even though I ain't got a hen
I been tryin' to go across the road
Like a big ol' horny toad
I been knockin' on your back door
Won't you come and let me in?

Well, I used to have an old dog
But he wasn't much to look at
He only had 3 legs and big alcoholic eyes
I been wishin' I could see him
Cause he's like my next of kin
I been wishin' I could have a bunch
Of sweet potato fries

I been hangin' at the laundromat
Cause I hear that's where it's at
I been gettin my news from
The voices in the wind
I been wishin' I was president
So I could run the government
I been knockin on your back door
Won't you come and let me in?

Now I'm pickin on my guitar
Cause I wanna be a big star
But I don't wanna leave home
If I can't take my gin
I been writing you a letter
Sayin I'm a feelin better
I been knockin on your back door
Won't you come and let me in?
