Lyrics

Let me tell you 'bout a girl I know  
She is my baby and she lives next door  
Every mornin' 'fore the sun comes up  
She brings me coffee in my favorite cup  
That's why I know, yes, I know  
Hallelujah, I just love her so  
  
When I'm in trouble and I have no friend  
I know she'll go with me until the end  
Everybody asks me how I know  
I smile at them and say, "She told me so"  
That's why I know, oh, I know  
Hallelujah, I just love her so  
  
Now, if I call her on the telephone  
And tell her that I'm all alone  
By the time I count from one to four  
I hear her [KNOCK-KNOCK-KNOCK-KNOCK] on my door  
  
In the evening when the sun goes down  
When there is nobody else around  
She kisses me and she holds me tight  
And tells me, "Daddy, everything's all right"  
That's why I know, yes, I know  
Hallelujah, I just love her so  
  
Now, if I call her on the telephone  
And tell her that I'm all alone  
By the time I count from one to four  
I hear her [KNOCK-KNOCK-KNOCK-KNOCK] on my door  
  
In the evening when the sun goes down  
When there is nobody else around  
She kisses me and she holds me tight  
And tells me, "Daddy, everything's all right"  
That's why I know, yes, I know  
Hallelujah, I just love her so  
Oh, hallelujah  
Don't you know, I just love her so  
She's my little woman, waitin' all this time  
Babe, I'm a little fool for you, little girl
