  *++Lyrics:|\\
The lyrics of this song are not included here because they use terms for African-Americans and depict them in ways that by today's standards are offensive and objectionable. Copies of two different versions of sheet music for the song, one dated 1847 with the title "Stop Dat Knocking at de Door" and one dated 1848 with the title "Stop That Knocking at the Door", are held in the United States Library of Congress collection “Music for the Nation: American Sheet Music, 1820-1860” and digitized photocopies of both versions may be viewed online at loc.gov\\
