CAN'T FIND THE DOORKNOB
(J. Fautheree)
JIMMY FAUTHEREE (PAULA 239)

I hear 'em screamin' and a-havin' a ball
Commotion's comm' from the end of the hall
I'm missin' out on all the party again
'Cause I can't find the doorknob, I can't get in
My baby's in there and it's makin' me sad
I hear her laughin' and it's makin' me mad
I see a dim light in the lover's den
But I can't find the doorknob, I can't get in

I hear the music keep on playin' so loud
I sure would like to join that noisy crowd
Looks like I missed a swingin' party again
'Cause I can't find the doorknob, I can't get in
I wish somebody would kindly turn on the light
It may not help me but I think it might
I'd like to tell 'em all I'm back again
But I can't find the doorknob, I can't get in
