Notes |
Audio file 2 of 2. Continuation of tape HED-089c-1. Picks up at Blue Velvet Band. Strong performances. Mandolin, guitar and vocals are clearly heard but the fiddle sounds distant. This tape has been in wide circulation among musicians and collectors since the mid 1960's. Excellent performances from Cline, Mayfield and Monroe and also includes numerous comedy skits and jokes from Lester Sandy (Uncle Puny) Tape is slightly fast. Tape mix favors the the guitar and mandolin. Fiddle is difficult to hear but the mandolin and Mayfield's excellent rhythm guitar are front and center. Priority recording. Monroe in good voice. |

Lyrics/Transcription |
I'm knockin' on your door again my darlin'
I'm knockin' on your door please answer me
Cause I've tried to make you realize my darlin'
That no one else was ever meant for me
Well, I remember dear you said you'd always love me
And you promised me your happiness so true
But now you gone away, dear, with another
And I wonder if you feel the way I do
I'm knockin' on your door again my darlin'
I'm knockin' on your door please answer me
Cause I've tried to make you realize my darlin'
That no one else was ever meant for me
I'm knockin' on your door again my darlin'
I'm knockin' on your door please answer me
I never read the letter that you wrote my little darlin'
I'm sailing far across the deep blue sea
I'm knockin' on your door again my darlin'
To return the letters that you wrote to me
I'm knockin' on your door again my darlin'
This time honey, I'm sure things gonna be
* Refrain
So good-bye dear, I know you'll soon forget me
And I hope that you find happiness so true
But whenever you make love, sweetheart, remember
There will never always be the same for you |
