For a long long time now just about every night

You found some excuse not to hold me tight

No matter what I do you sit and pout don't let that doorknob hit you going out



Don't let that doorknob hit you going out honey

Others lips now thrill you there's no doubt

There's no burden like the love you make me live without

Don't let that doorknob hit you going out

[ el.banjo - fiddle ]

I've laid awake nights to two or three so near to you but you're so far from me

The battle's done you won the fight no doubt

Don't let that doorknob hit you going out

Don't let that doorknob hit you...

Don't let that doorknob hit you going out
