It goes something like...
Who's that knockin' at my door..
.....(something.....)
Don't come round here no more...
It's an oldie... 80's maybe?
Thanks.

"Sympathy" by Bon Jovi?
Well you walked out the door just like a thief in the night
I guess you never even had the balls to say goodbye
You stole my heart and you took all the cash
You split with my soul and my stereo, left me with the trash
I never been nobody's Valentine and you never were a bride to be
I don't need you to be a friend of mine, I don't need no charity
Chorus:
Don't' come knockin' on my back door
Love ain't livin' 'round here no more
I don't want to taste your empathy
I don't want no sympathy
I don't need your sympathy, baby
Don't want no sympathy
I don't need your sympathy, baby
I bet your out on the streets, wrapped up in somebody's arms
Until it's time to pay the rent - you'll be gone, gone, gone
You got a suicide heart, you send it COD
Honey, I know your act, when you're sending it back don't come *****in' to me
Who said love is just a sacrifice was a man in need of sympathy
It sure don't take too long to realize that you ain't getting none from me
Chorus:
Don't come knockin' on my back door
Love ain't living 'round here no more
I don't want to taste your empathy
I don't want your sympathy
I don't need your sympathy, baby
Don't want no sympathy
I don't need your sympathy, baby
When I look back in time I see love ain't been no friend to me
I never been nobody's Valentine and you never were a bride to be
Chorus:
Don't come knockin' on my back door
Love ain't livin' 'round here no more
Count up all the tears you've cried for me
Don't come knockin' on my back door
Love ain't livin' round here no more
I don't wanna taste your charity
I don't want no sympathy
I don't need no sympathy, baby
Don't want no sympathy
I don't need your sympathy, baby
I want no sympathy
I don't need no sympathy
I don't like no sympathy
That one by Bon Jovi is a little involved.
I think the song I'm thinking of was a lot simpler.
I'll try to listen to the Bon Jovi one to see for sure.
THANKS!
A little involved? That's funny. Any other clues you can think of? I've found several with lyrics similar to the ones you mentioned.
"Dont come around here no more" .... tom petty and the heartbreakers maybe?
I've got a couple ideas...
The Tea Party - Sun Going Down
I woke up this morning, someone was knocking at my door.
I woke up this morning, someone was knocking at my door.
And I said hello sweet Satan, I believe it's time to go.
Thirteenth apostle knocking at my door,
Telling me that I can't play with you no more.
I guess the wages of sin now, couldn't buy my meals,
Screaming out your name baby, how does that feel.
Feeling through the out door, all throughout the night.
Waiting for the doctor to come and make me right.
Fading from the bedside, I've lost all appeal
To stay with you baby
Baby how does that, how does that feel?
Sun's going down,
sun's going down
Sun's going down,
sun's going down
Ohh go down
Sing throughout the streets baby, And you sing throughout the night
You go and tell the people People my soul is aflight
I guess the wages of sin now, yeah they couldn't buy my meals
I'm screaming out your name baby, how does that feel
Thirteenth apostle knocking at my door
Telling me that I can't, I can't play with you no more
I guess the wages of sin now, yeah they couldn't buy my meals
I'm screaming out your name girl, baby how does that
Now honey how does that feel?
Sun's going down,
Looked at the heavens above
and I said a little prayer
As if the heavens above
would even care
Looked at the heavens above
and I said a little prayer
As if the heavens above
would even care care
I said "Jesus,
won't you meet me in the middle of the air?
I think my wings are falling below Jesus, I need another pair
Jesus, Won't you meet me in the middle of the air
I think my wings are falling below I need another pair"
"St. Peter at the gates of heaven, baby won't you let me in, let me in
St. Peter at the gates of heaven, honey won't you let me in, let me in
St. Peter at the gates of heaven, baby won't you let me in, let me in
I said now Peter, listen Peter, come on Peter,
Won't you let me in!
Right now!
I said sun's going down

Guess Who - American Woman?
American woman, stay away from me
American woman, mama let me be
Don't come hare hanging around my door
I don't want to see your face no more
I got more important things to do
Than spend my time growin' old with you
Now woman, I said stay away
American woman, listen what I say
American woman, get away from me
American woman, mama let me be
Don't come here knocking around my door
Don't want to see your shadow no more
Colored lights can hypnotize
Sparkle someone else's eyes
Now woman, I said get away
American woman, listen what I say
American woman, I said get way
American woman, listen what I say
Don't come here hanging around my door
Don't want to see your face no more
I don't need your war machines
I don't need your ghetto scenes
Colored lights can hypnotize
Sparkle someone else's eyes
Now woman, get away from me
American woman, mama let me be
Go, gotta get away, gotta get away, now go go go
I'm gonna leave you, woman
Gotta leave you, woman
Bye bye, bye bye
Bye bye, bye bye
You're no good for me
I'm no good for you
Gonna look at you right in the eye
Tell you what I'm gonna do
You know I'm gonna leave
You know I'm gonna go
You know I'm gonna leave
You know I'm gonna go, woman
I'm gonna leave you, woman
Goodbye, American woman
Goodbye American chick
I think this song may be "Who can it be now?" by Men at Work
Who Can It Be Now?
Who can it be knocking at my door?
Go 'way, don't come 'round here no more.
Can't you see that it's late at night?
I'm very tired, and I'm not feeling right.
All I wish is to be alone;
Stay away, don't you invade my home.
Best off if you hang outside,
Don't come in - I'll only run and hide.
Who can it be now?
Who can it be now?
Who can it be now?
Who can it be now?
Who can it be knocking at my door?
Make no sound, tip-toe across the floor.
If he hears, he'll knock all day,
I'll be trapped, and here I'll have to stay.
I've done no harm, I keep to myself;
There's nothing wrong with my state of mental health.
I like it here with my childhood friend;
Here they come, those feelings again!
Who can it be now?
Who can it be now?
Who can it be now?
Who can it be now?
Is it the man come to take me away?
Why do they follow me?
It's not the future that I can see,
It's just my fantasy
Oh...Who can it be now?
Oh...Who can it...Who can it...
Yeah yeah yeah
