Lyrics
You Knock Me Out
Larry Carr / Glen Daigle (c) 2004
(Verse 1)
Sittin? on my front porch, playin? my guitar
And I see you drive up in yo? fancy Lincoln car
Watch the door swing open, yo? leg hits the street
Lawd have mercy, think my heart just skipped a beat
I don?t know yo momma, I don?t know yo? pa
Just know that your the finest woman that I ever saw
You knock me out babe, you knock me out
And I loves ya baby, you knock me out
(Short harmonica break)
(Verse 2)
Come on up that sidewalk, sit right next to me
Do a little talkin, on my front porch swing
Maybe little later, slip inside the house
I?ll resuscitate you with a little mouth to mouth
Don?t know where you goin?, Don?t know where you been
Don?t know if I?ll ever see your pretty face again
You knock me out babe, you knock me out
And I loves ya baby, you knock me out
(Instrumental)
(Chorus)
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
You knock me out babe, you knock me out
Don?t know where you goin?, Don?t know where you been
Don?t know if I?ll ever see yo pretty face again
You knock me out babe, you knock me out
And I loves ya baby, you knock me out
(Short harmonica break)
(Verse 3)
Guess I?m playin? too hard, I just popped a string
Think it popped my mind on back into reality
Cause I see you knockin?, on my neighbor?s door
Lawd have mercy, I can?t take it any more
I don?t know yo number, I don?t know yo name
Just know that thinkin? bout you girl is drivin? me insane
You knock me out babe, you knock me out
And I loves ya baby, you knock me out
(Chorus)
Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
You knock me out babe, you knock me out
I don?t know yo number, I don?t know yo name
Just know that thinkin? bout you girl is drivin? me insane
You knock me out babe, you knock me out
And I loves ya baby, you knock me out
