I Hear You Knocking - a popular rhythm and blues song with emphatic syncopation, written by Dave Bartholomew and Pearl King and published in 1955. The original recording was made by Smiley Lewis, reaching #2 on the Billboard R&B singles chart.

The song, a 12-bar blues, was popularized in 1955 in a cover version by Gale Storm in a recording on Dot Records catalog number 15412, reaching #2 on the Billboard charts. The song reached #3 on the Cash Box Best-Selling Record chart.

A later recording by Dave Edmunds reached #4 on the Billboard charts in 1971
 
A little stretch, but keeps the Lynyrd Skynyd (past and current) thing going:

Downright and Dangerous - Van Zant from Brother to Brother

VanZant is Johnny and Donnie VanZant, brothers of Ronnie Van Zant. Ronnie of course was original lead singer for Skynyrd, Johnny sings with the post-crash version. Donnie is with .38 Special.
