Keep Knocking Songtext
von The Canton Spirituals

Now when you try to reach your goal, and life is taking it′s toll
And nothing is going right, it look hopeless doing right
Don't give up and don′t give in, the fight is fixed and you're gonna win

All you gotta do is keep knocking (keep knocking)
Keep on knocking (keep knocking)
Knock until your all blessing come (knock until your blessing come)

Now it's going to get rough and then it′s going to get tough
You′re going to shout your tears down through hills
But don't give up and don′t give in, I say the fight is fixed and the Bible says you're going to win
But you gotta reap everything you sow
But when you get through reaping, you won′t be down no more
You've got to have a made-up mind


Keep knocking (oh yes)
Keep knocking
Knock until your own blessings come (knock until your own blessings come)

All you need to do is just stay there (keep knocking), stay there (keep on knocking), stay right there (keep knocking)
And don′t give a hint (keep on knocking), you got to make up your mind (keep knocking)
And the Bible says (keep on knocking), ask (keep knocking), and it shall be given (keep on knocking)
Seek (keep knocking), and you shall find (keep on knocking)
Knock(keep knocking), knock (keep on knocking), and it shall be opened (keep knocking), unto you (keep on knocking)
And if you're looking for a job (keep knocking), stay there (keep on knocking), stay right there (keep knocking)
And if you're looking for a home (keep on knocking), for your family (keep knocking), stay right there (keep on knocking)
Somebody might be like me (keep knocking), you′re about to get sick (keep on knocking), looking for a healing (keep knocking)
But I have no doubt (keep on knocking), that you are healed (keep knocking)
Thank you Lord (keep on knocking), don′t give up (keep knocking), and don't quit my friend (keep on knocking)
Don′t break through (keep knocking), get right around the bend (keep on knocking)
Shit is going to really get rough (keep knocking), and then it's going to get tough (keep on knocking)
So keep on knocking (keep knocking), keep on knocking (keep on knocking)
Don′t stop knocking (keep knocking)
