Am I Locking Someone In

Mel Tillis · Walking on New Grass [1970]

(Joe Hayes - Fatima Atchley)



When you left I changed the locks on all the doors

And I swore I'd never let you in no more

But I feel your presence here just like a ghost

Each time I lock the door is when I feel it most.



Am I locking someone out or someone in

I've got a feeling you're in the house again

Oh I wish I knew what this was all about

Am I locking someone in or someone out.



--- Instrumental ---



I just watch TV till league goes off each night

Then I lock the door and turn out all the lights

That's when you walk here and I just stand and stare

I flip back all the locks and find there's no one there.



Am I locking someone out or someone in

I've got a feeling you're in the house again

Oh I wish I knew what this was all about

Am I locking someone in or someone out.



Am I locking someone in or someone out...
