Knock on Wood (Eddie Floyd song)
1966 single by Eddie Floyd
"Knock on Wood" is a 1966 song by Eddie Floyd and written by Floyd and Steve Cropper.[6] The song was later covered by other artists, most notably Amii Stewart in 1979.
Stewart's disco version was the most successful on weekly music charts.
Eddie Floyd version
"Knock On Wood" was written in the Lorraine Motel in Memphis, Tennessee (now The National Civil Rights Museum). Steve Cropper has stated in interviews that there was a lightning storm the night that he and Eddie wrote the song, hence the lyrics 'It's like thunder, lightning, The way you love me is frightening'.
The song was based on another song co-written by Cropper, the Wilson Pickett version of "In the Midnight Hour" (1965), having the same chord progression as it "only played in reverse".
According to Floyd, "Knock On Wood" was initially written for Otis Redding.
However, Stax label manager Jim Stewart turned down the idea of Redding recordin
