They saw somebody in the window; the light on in awe,
Could have kept inside for one moment, and give my wife a telephone call,
So sorry to alarm you; I'm not gonna harm you,
Don't call the night patrol, just look at me shaking in the midnight cold.
I've been knocking on fifteen doors,
I've been knocking on fifteen doors.
Will you come to me in the morning to say, "How do you do"?
Will you stand there, stare, and wonder 'cause I don't remember you?
I say, one I was a stranger, once I was in need,
But you hid behind the door, and left me shaking on your front porch.
I've been knocking on fifteen doors,
I've been knocking on fifteen doors.
I've been knocking on fifteen doors,
I've been knocking on fifteen doors,
I've been knocking on fifteen doors,
I've been knocking on fifteen doors,
I've been knocking on fifteen doors,
I've been knocking on fifteen doors,
