I went into the chandler's shop some candles for to buy,
GCD
I looked around the chandler's shop but no one did I spy.
GCD
I was disappointed and some angry words I said,
GGF#GCDG
Then I heard the sound of a (knock,knock,knock) right above my head. (2x)
[Instrumental]

GCG
Well I was slick and I was quick, and up the stairs I sped,
GCD
And much to my surprise I found the chandler's wife in bed;
GCD
And with her was another man of most gigantic size,
GGF#GCDG
And they were having a (knock,knock,knock) right before my eyes. (2x)
[Instrumental]

GCG
When the fun was over and done and the lady raised her head,
GCD
She was quite surprised to find me standing by the bed.
GCD
"If you will be discreet, my lad, if you would be so kind,
GGF#GCDG
I'll let you come up for some (knock,knock,knock) whenever you feel inclined." (2x)

Now, all you married men take heed, if ever you come to town,
GCD
If you should leave your woman alone, be sure to tie her down.
GCD
Or, if you would be kind to her, just sit her on that floor,
GGF#GCDG
Mind give her so much of that (knock,knock,knock) she doesn't need any more.
GGF#GCDG
Mind give her so much of that (knock,knock,knock) she doesn't need any more.
