Deep Purple - Knocking at your back door lyrics

Your rating:
Sweet Lucy was a dancer
But none of us would chance her 
Because she was a Samurai 
She made electric shadows
Beyond our fingertips
And none of us could reach that high

She came on like a teaser 
I had to touch and please her 
Enjoy a little paradise 
The log was in my pocket 
When Lucy met the Rockett 
And she never knew the reason why 

I can't deny it 
With that smile on her face 
It's not the kill 
It's the thrill of the chase 

Feel it coming, it's knocking at the door 
You know it's no good running, it's not against the law 
The point of no return and now you know the score 
And now you're learning, what's knockin' at your back door 

Sweet Nancy was so fancy 
To get into her pantry 
Had to be the aristocracy 
The members that she toyed with 
At her city club 
Were something in diplomacy 

So we put her on the hit list 
Of a common cunning linguist 
A master of many tongues 
And now she eases gently 
From her Austin to her Bentley 
Suddenly she feels so young

I can't deny it 
With that smile on her face 
It's not the kill 
It's the thrill of the chase 

Feel it coming, it's knocking at the door 
You know it's no good running, it's not against the law 
The point of no return and now you know the score 
And now you're learning, aha, what's knockin' at your back door 

Sweet Lucy was a dancer
But none of us would chance her 
Because she was a Samurai 
She made electric shadows
Beyond our fingertips
And none of us could reach that high

I can't deny it 
With that smile on her face, oohh
It's not the kill 
It's the thrill of the chase 

Feel it coming, it's knocking at the door 
You know it's no good running, it's not against the law 
The point of no return and now you know the score 
And now you're learning, what's knockin' at your back door

Ahaaa, knockin' at your back door
