I keep on knockin' on wood I'll keep my fingers crossed in case you worry When I'm lookin' sorry I turned a sixpence over, when the moon is new And wish for you I'll be so lucky if it comes true 'Cause I want you That's why I'm knockin' on wood That's why I watch it so's I don't get sadder Underneath a ladder I even went right out and bought a crystal ball And that ain't all I'll change the future if I could And knock on wood (Go) I'll change the future real good One night when all the world is bad and yellow You'll see this fellow Walk down the magic road that leads to lovers lane Hand in hand With you beside me if you would That's why I'm knockin' on wood
