What If I Came Knocking
Mellencamp John Cougar

What if I came knocking

On your front door some night?

Would you open the window

And drop me down the key?

What if I came knocking

On your bedpost that same night?

Would you open up your heart

Or try to get the best of me?

What if I came knocking

On your brain the next day

And ask for your truth and your love and your honesty?

Would you build up your big walls

And try to hide behind that smile

Or would you try and pull the wool right over me?

So what if I came knocking?

So what if I came knocking?

So what if I came kicking

And it scared you a little bit

And I came on strong

Would you think

That there's something wrong with me?

Or could it be your fears

Of trying something real

Or just afraid to touch

A guy like me?

CHORUS

What if I came knocking?

What if I came knocking?

What if I came knocking?

On your front door some night? Ahh

So let's just say it worked out

Like a storybook dream

And we lived happily ever after

Fa la la la

But what if I came crying

After just a few weeks

And said I misread my heart

This is not really ment to be? Yeah

So if you hear some knocking

On your window tonight

You can bet that it's probably me

But let it be known

That we're just a pair of tumbling dice

ANd the outcome of these crap shoots

Is hard to see

So what if I came knocking?

So what if I came knocking?

So what if I came knocking

On your front door tonight? Ahh

SO what if I came knocking?

Knock, knock, knock, knock, knock, knocking

Kick, kick, kick

What if I came knocking

On your front porch tonight, tonight?
