When One Door Slams

by Stan Lawrence

Well we’ve fallen out and now you’ve put me out the door
You’re actin’ like we’ve never been through this before
I got no proof, but it’s the truth, I won’t be gone too long
And I won’t worry much ‘bout if it’s right or wrong

When one door slams, another opens
To come back on hands and knees, is what you want from me
But darling girl no matter what you’re hopin’
When your door slams, another opens

Now I ain’t the kind of guy who fools around
And I’m a pretty good man if I say so and it’s a small town
When word on me that I’m free gets around
Those girls will be all over me

When one door slams, another opens
To come back on hands and knees, is what you want from me
But darling girl no matter what you’re hopin’
When your door slams, another opens

Now think about it baby when you close that door
You won’t find me hangin’ round your front steps no more
There’s more fish in the sea, waitin’ on me to bring em’ home
I’ll just go back to fishing until there's no fish no more

When one door slams, another opens
To come back on hands and knees, is what you want from me
Darling girl no matter what you’re hopin’
When your door slams, another opens
When your door slams, another opens
