Alan D. David. Songwriter and performer in various musical genres. By trade, I am a lead guitarist. But, in recent years I have become more of a songwriter/comp
For over 40 years I played lead guitar and did back-up vocals in various country bands. It has been one of the greatest thrills of my life. But, these days I stay at home and compose songs, both lyrics and music. My writing style is much broader than just country music. I also write southern rock, a little blues, lots of smooth jazz and movie themes and even some latin music. I have been writing for about 20 years and hope to for quite a few more years.

Lyrics
Don't Come Knockin' (v1) Hope you're proud of your cheatin' self, cuz I'm taking you off the shelf Sending you on down the road, your childish game is just too old All you have to offer me, is your infidelity You've left me feeling empty and so cold CHORUS Don't come knockin' on my front door, I ain't got nothin' for you no more I've grown tired of all your alibis And don't come knockin' at my back door, things ain't the way they were before I'm fed up with all your cheatin' lies (v2) I gave you everything, my heart - my soul - and all that bling But I guess that ain't enough, my love - my dreams - and all that stuff Cuz you had to cross the line, I guess you thought that I was blind But Honey I saw every thing, guess I saw too much CHORUS Don't come knockin' on my front door, I ain't got nothin' for you no more I've grown tired of all your alibis And don't come knockin' at my back door, things ain't the way they were before I'm fed up with all your cheatin' lies INSTRUMENTAL BREAK (v3) Hope you find what turns you on, cuz honey what we had is gone I can't let you hang around, to build me up then bring me down Don't come runnin' back to me, I'm through with you just let me be That string around my finger just came unwound CHORUS Don't come knockin' on my front door, I ain't got nothin' for you no more I've grown tired of all your alibis And don't come knockin' at my back door, things ain't the way they were before I'm fed up with all your cheatin' lies REPEAT CHORUS TAG Don’t you even come knockin’ (c) 2012 Alan D.
