What's the differences?

Could someone tell me:

1. what's the differences between

"You Knock Me Off Of My Feet" and "You Knock Me Off My Feet"?



"You Knock Me Off Of My Feet" is part of the lyrics

in Michael Jackson's song, "The Way You Make Me Feel."



2. And what's the differences between "Daggone it" and "Doggone it"?

And what do those two mean?
