Knock On Another Door
Knock On Another Door: A Heartfelt Plea for Shelter
Lyrics
We’ve got no room,
We don't have any space available.
We must confess
We need to admit or acknowledge.
We can’t take any more.
We are unable to accommodate anyone else.
We’ve got no room,
Our capacity is full.
So we suggest
Therefore, we propose.
You knock on another door!
You should seek lodging or assistance elsewhere.
Rat-a-tat! Rat-a-tat! Rat-a-tat-a-tat!
Sound mimicking a knocking or doorbell.
Any room for a couple
Is there any available space for a couple without a place to stay?
With nowhere else to stay?
A couple seeking shelter or accommodation.
Any room for a couple
A pair that has traveled a long distance.
Who’ve come from far way?
We're facing a lack of space.
We’ve got no room,
We're full and unable to accept more.
We must confess
We need to acknowledge our limitation in housing.
We can’t take any more.
We cannot take any additional people.
We’ve got no room,
We have no more space to offer.
So we suggest
Consequently, we propose.
You knock on another door!
Suggesting finding lodging elsewhere.
Rat-a-tat! Rat-a-tat! Rat-a-tat-a-tat!
Imitating the sound of knocking on a door.
Any room for a lady
Is there any available space for a pregnant woman?
Whose baby’s nearly due?
A woman in the later stages of pregnancy.
Any room for a lady?
We're uncertain how to assist a pregnant woman.
We don’t know what to do!
We're in a dilemma about aiding a pregnant woman.
We’ve got no room,
Expressing the lack of available space.
We must confess
We have to acknowledge our limitations.
We can’t take any more.
We are at full capacity and cannot accommodate more.
We’ve got no room,
We're unable to provide space.
So we suggest
As a result, we recommend.
You knock on another door!
To seek assistance elsewhere due to our inability to help.
Rat-a-tat! Rat-a-tat! Rat-a-tat-a-tat!
Imitating the sound of knocking on a door.
Any room for a baby
Is there any available space for an imminent baby?
Who’s coming soon for sure?
A baby expected to arrive very soon.
All we’ve got is a stable
We only have a stable available for lodging.
But help yourself to straw!
However, you're welcome to make use of the straw there.
