Knock, Knock Lyrics by Roy Ayers

Feeling Good

1982

Knock knock, who's there?
Anyone who wants to share
Give a nickel, give a dime
Ask somebody for the time
Mama loves what baby does
And baby does what mama says
Daddy loves what mama is
And mama does what daddy says
Brother wants a brand new car
Sister wants to be a movie star
Uncle John is feeling bad
He's crying for the love he had
Knock knock, who's there?
Anyone who wants to share

[Instrumental Break]

Knock knock, who's there?
Anyone who wants to share
Mary Joe went to Hollywood
Heard she didn't do too good
Now she [?], and didn't sleep
Trying to raise a family
Love is come, and love is go
This is what you need to know
Maybe now, it's not too late
Now it's time to appreciate
Bet your life, I'm feeling fine
Right down to the bottom of my spine
Knock knock, who's there?
Anyone who wants to share
Give a nickel, give a dime
Ask somebody for the time

[Vibraphone Solo]

Knock knock, who's there?
Anyone who wants to share
Mama loves what baby does
And baby does what mama says
Daddy loves what mama is
And mama does what daddy says
Brother wants a brand new car
Sister wants to be a movie star
Mary Joe went to Hollywood
Heard she didn't do too good
Now she [?], and didn't sleep
Trying to raise a family
Love is come, and love is go
This is what you need to know
Maybe now, it's not too late
Now it's time to appreciate
