Knockin' on Your Screen Door - John Prine
I ain't got nobody hangin'
'Round my doorstep
Ain't got no loose change just a-hangin'
'Round my jeans
If you see somebody would you send em'
Over my way
I could use some help here with
A can of pork and beans
I once had a family but they up and left me
With nothing but an 8-track another side of George Jones
I was in high cotton just a-bangin' on my six-string
A-kickin' at the trash can walkin' skin and bone
I can see your back porch if I close my eyes now
I can hear the train tracks through the laundry on the line
I'm thinking it's your business but you don't got to answer
I'm knocking on your screen door in the summertime
Everybody's out there climbin' on the trees now
Swingin' in the breeze now hangin' on the vine
I'm dreamin' 'bout a sailboat I don't need a fur coat
Underneath the dashboard got some sweet potato wine
I can see your back porch if I close my eyes now
I can hear the train tracks through the laundry on the line
I'm thinking it's your business but you don't got to answer
I'm knocking on your screen door in the summertime
I'm knocking on your screen door in the summertime
