[ti: Knockin’ on Your Screen Door]
[length: 02:20]
[00:04.98]I ain’t got nobody
[00:07.76]Hangin’ ’round my doorstep
[00:10.15]Ain’t got no loose change
[00:12.79]Just a-hangin’ ’round my jeans
[00:15.74]If you see somebody
[00:18.21]Would you send em’ over my way?
[00:21.09]I could use some help here
[00:23.46]With a can of pork and beans
[00:26.93]I once had a family
[00:29.32]But they up and left me
[00:32.25]With nothin’ but an 8-track
[00:34.58]Another side of George Jones
[00:37.55]I was in high cotton
[00:40.08]Just a-bangin’ on my six-string
[00:43.34]A-kickin’ at the trash can
[00:45.85]Walkin’ skin and bone
[00:48.79]I can see your back porch
[00:51.59]If I close my eyes now
[00:54.35]I can hear the train tracks
[00:56.54]Through the laundry on the line
[00:59.51]I’m thinkin’ it’s your business
[01:02.43]But you don’t got to answer
[01:05.37]I’m knockin’ on your screen door
[01:08.15]In the summertime
[01:10.78]
[01:21.96]Everybody’s out there
[01:24.60]Climbin’ on the trees now
[01:27.46]A-swingin’ in the breeze now
[01:30.20]A-hangin’ on the vine
[01:32.99]I’m dreamin’ ’bout a sailboat
[01:35.76]I don’t need a fur coat
[01:38.68]Underneath the dashboard
[01:41.07]Got some sweet potato wine
[01:44.22]I can see your back porch
[01:46.82]If I close my eyes now
[01:49.58]I can hear the train tracks
[01:51.87]Through the laundry on the line
[01:55.14]I’m thinkin’ it’s your business
[01:57.56]But you don’t got to answer
[02:00.51]I’m knockin’ on your screen door
[02:03.36]In the summertime
[02:06.18]I’m knockin’ on your screen door
[02:08.97]In the summertime
