Who's that knocking at my door? lyrics

Who's that knockin'? Don't stand outside there, come on in here!

I just had a sort of feeling this morning

Something good was gonna happen today

Now there comes a sound without any warning

I just know it's good luck coming my way!

Goodness gracious, can it be? Someone's coming back to me

Who's that knocking at my door?

I've been waiting oh so long, I'll just die if i'm wrong

Who's that knocking at my door?

I know it can't be the mailman, the coal man, the ice man,

They've been here today

Can't be the grocer, the butcher, the baker,

They don't knock that way

If my sweetie's there outside, my arms and my heart are open wide

Who's that knocking at my door?

Me oh my, my oh me, guess i'm having company

Who's that knocking at my door?

See the time? Eight O'Clock. Sounds like a familiar knock

Who's that knocking at my door?

I know it can't be the milk man, the gas man, the bread man, who always collects

I hope that it isn't the butter and egg man, who writes out those checks

If it's my sweet used-to-be, gonna lock him in, lose the key

Who's that knocking at my door?

Can't be the plumber, the peddler, the parlor, cause i've paid those bills

I hope that it isn't the doctor, the dentist, they can't cure my ills

If it's someone that i've known, gonna make him feel at home

Who's that knocking at my door?

That's all!
