Ledisi - Knockin' lyrics
[Ledisi - Knockin' lyrics]
I hear you knockin' but you can't come in
I hear you knockin' but you ain't gon' win
I hear you knockin', uh uh
I hear you knockin', uh uh
I hear you knock, knock, knock, knock
Knockin'
Workin' day and night
Gotta get up and pay my bills
People want what they want
They don't care about how you feel
You ain't gon' get me today
You better move out my way
I got a whole lot to live for
Don't wanna hear the blues today, no
Economy down, said the news
'Cause we bought the war
Changes come like the wind
Now I know what hope is for
I see the sun on my face
And you won't hear me complain (Hey)
'Cause, I can't let the dark
Days bring me down got a lotta things to say
Don't be knockin' at my door
I hear you knockin' but you can't come in
(Can't come in)
I hear you knockin' but you ain't gon' win
(You ain't gonna win me, no)
I hear you knockin', uh uh
I hear you knockin', uh uh
(I hear you knockin')
I hear you knock, knock, knock, knock
Knockin' (Oh, kn-kn-knockin' at my door)
I hear you knockin' but you can't come in
(Don't do it)
I hear you knockin' but you ain't gon' win
(You can't win) i hear you knockin', uh uh
I hear you knockin', uh uh
I hear you knock, knock, knock, knock
Knockin'
People always usin' other people
Tryna get ahead runnin' after the light
Never thinkin' 'bout they said
Hey, what's the matter with you?
You need to watch what you do
Hey, you got to get your head straight
Live your life and do what He told you to do
Yeah early Sunday mornin'
Preacher talkin' 'bout savin' souls
He said, "I don't have all the answers
I'm just here to try to let you know"
Every time that you pray
A blessin' comes right away, yeah
Don't let the hard times take your spirit
Move the devil away
Don't be knockin' at my door
I hear you knockin' but you can't come in
(You can't come in)
I hear you knockin' but you ain't gon' win
(You ain't gon' win)
