Knocking At Your Back Door Lyrics By Deep Purple

    sweet lucy was a dancer
    but none of us would chance her
    because she was a samurai
    she made electric shadows
    beyond our fingertips
    and none of us could reach that high
    she came on like a teaser
    i had to touch and please her
    enjoy a little paradise
    the log was in my pocket
    when lucy met the rocket
    she never knew the reason why

    i can’t deny it
    with that smile on her face
    oh it’s not the kill
    it’s the thrill of the chase

    feel it coming
    it’s knocking at the door
    you know it’s no good running
    it’s not against the law
    the point of no return
    now you know the score
    and now you’re learning
    ahha what’s knockin’ at your back door

    sweet nancy was so fancy
    to get into her pants
    we had to be the aristocracy
    the members that she toyed with
    at her city club
    were something in diplomacy
    so we put her on the hit list
    of a common cunning linguist
    a master of many tongues
    now she eases gently
    from her austin to her bentley
    suddenly she feels so young

    i can’t deny it
    with that smile on her face
    oh it’s not the kill
    it’s the thrill of the chase

    feel it coming
    it’s knocking at the door
    you know it’s no good running
    no it’s not against the law
    the point of no return
    now you know the score
    and now you’re learning
    ahha what’s knockin’ at your back door

    sweet lucy was a dancer
    but none of us would chance her
    because she was a samurai
    she made electric shadows
    beyond our fingertips
    and one of us could reach that high

    i can’t deny it
    with that smile on my face ohohoh
    it’s not the kill
    it’s the thrill of the chase

    feel it coming
    knocking at your door
    you know it’s no good running
    now it’s knocking at your door

    ahha knocking at your back door
