I hear you knocking (song)

This is how my oldest students sang a song called 'I hear you knocking' from our coursebooks at the beginning of February 2006.

The song was originally sung by Dave Edmunds in 1970, and here are the lyrics:

You went away and left me long time ago
And now you’re knocking on my door.
 


Chorus
I hear you knocking,
But you can’t come in.
I hear you knocking.
Go back where you’ve been.
 


Chorus

I begged you not to go but you said goodbye,
And now you’re telling me all your lies.
 


Chorus

You’d better get back to where you used to be,
‘Cos your kind of love ain’t good for me.
 


Chorus

I told you way back in fifty-two
That I would never go with you.
