[Verse 1]
Let me tell you about a boy I know
He's my baby and he lives next door
In the morning when the sun comes up
He brings me coffee in my favourite cup
That's how I know, Hallelujah, I just love him so
When I'm in trouble and I have no friends
I know he'll go with me until the end
Everybody asks me how I know
I smile and tell them that he told me so
That's how I know, yes I know
Hallelujah, I just love him so

[Chorus]
When I call him on the telephone
And I tell him that I'm all alone
By the time I count from one to four
I hear him knocking on my door

[Verse 2]
In the evening when the sun goes down
And there ain't nobody else around
He kisses me and he holds me tight
And tells me, "Pumpkin, everything's alright"
That's how I know, yes I know
Hallelujah, I just love him so
[Chorus]
When I call him on the telephone
And I tell him that I'm all alone
By the time I count from one to four
I hear him knocking on my door
