Keep On Knocking Lyrics - Lucky Dube

She wrote me a letter 

In the early days of December 

Saying she wasn' t happy 

Where she was 

Oh that' s the bad news yeah 

That is why today I' m here 

To take her away from you 

Everytime you treat her badly 

It brings back memories and 

We don' t want 

To see her go through 

Hurt again so!!! 

Chorus: 

Keep on knocking but you 

Can' t come in now 

She' s my mother you know 

If she was a bad mother 

She would have thrown us away 

Long time ago 

Even when things got bad 

She still held onto us all the way 

When she cries we cry too 

When she smiles we smile too 

We were happy all this time 

Until you came along 

Everytime you treat her badly 

It brings back memories and 

We don' t want to see her 

Go through hurt again 

Chorus till fade
