Knock on Wood (Eddie Floyd / Steve Cropper)
From the album "David Live"
Lyrics:
I don't want to lose the good thing that I've got
If I do, I will surely, I will lose a lot
For your love is better than any other love I've known
It's like thunder, lightning
The way you love me is frightening
I better knock on wood
Baby
I got superstitious about you, but I can't take a chance
You got me spinning, baby, spinning in a trance
But your love is better than any other love I've known
It's like thunder, lightning
The way you love me is frightening
You better knock on wood
Yeah
It's no secret, but that woman fills my lovin' cup
Thus she sees, so ready, that I get enough
And her love is better than any other love I've known
It's like thunder
It's like lightning
The way you love me is frightening
I better knock on wood
Baby
Oh yeah,
(Yes you better knock, knock, knock on wood) Yes, I better
(Yes you better knock, knock, knock on wood) Oh, knock on wood
(Yes you better knock, knock, knock on wood) You know I would, would
(Yes you better knock, knock, knock on wood) It's no secret
(Yes you better knock, knock, knock on wood) No, oh, better
(Yes you better knock, knock, knock on wood) Hangin' above me
(Yes you better knock, knock, knock on wood) I can't leave her
(Yes you better knock, knock, knock on wood) Oh no, baby
Knock on wood, Woo!!

This was from David's Live at the Philadelphia Tower 1977 (great double album!)
-
It fits very well within the whole live album.
-
I'm the first to hate this?!! I love Bowie but this song is out of his element. Sorry
-
Personally I think they have messed this up. Sounds like a school boy band playing it to me. Eddie Floyd's version was far more considered. What was the goal here? Were they trying to turn into something like a Status Quo song?
-
trevor bolder I think is playing drums here
-
Anyone have any idea who's playing the drums on this track? F'ing AMAZING stuff with the fills!
