Jon Augustine — Ain't Nobody Home lyrics

Lyrics

I thought I had ya in the palm of my hand.
Well, I really, really thought I had you, oh but I did not understand, no no,
that you really, really had me.
Oh, you had me good.
Yeah.
Well, just like my mama, just like my mama told me you would.
Well you deceived me.
Oh, you cheated me blind, blind, blind, blind.
Well, you done took away all, all my heart, my soul and my mind.
Yeah.
Yeah, that’s why I’m leaving, oh I am leaving you for good.
Now, now, just like my mama, just like my mama told me I should.
She told me, «Son, if you hear the devil knocking on your door, tell him ain’t nobody home.
If you hear the devil knocking on your door, go ahead and leave him alone.
Leave him alone.
Said I don’t care if the whole world to hell want to go, 'cause I am,
I don’t live here no more.
No, no, no, no, no!
No, no, no, no, no!
Why don’t you play that guitar here.
You thought you had me in the palm of your hands.
Oh, you really, really thought you had me, but you did not, said did not,
understand.
You ain’t coming inside my house, no, no, no, unless I let you in.
So in case you did not hear me the last time, I’m gonna tell ya one more time
again.
Listen up!
Listen up!
If you hear the devil knocking on your door, tell him ain’t nobody home.
If you hear the devil knocking on your door, go ahead and leave him alone.
I said, I don’t care if the whole world to hell may go, because I,
I don’t live here no more!
No, no, no, no, no!
No, no, no, no, no.
Ain’t nobody home.
