Mama, take this badge off of me
I can't use it anymore
It's getting dark
To dark to see
And I feel like I'm knocking on heaven's door
Knock knock knockin' on heaven's door
Knock knock knockin' on heaven's door
Mama put my guns in the ground
You know I won't shoot them anymore
The long black cloud is coming down
And I feel like I'm knocking on heaven's door
Knock knock knockin' on heaven's door
Knock knock knockin' on heaven's door
Ohh Ohh Ohh...
Mama wipe these tears from my eyes
You know I won't shed them anymore
The long black cloud is coming down
On me
And I feel like I'm knocking on heaven's door
Knock knock knockin' on heaven's door
Knock knock knockin' on heaven's door
Knock knock knockin' on heaven's door
Knock knock knockin' on heaven's door
Ohh Ohh Ohh
Ohh Ohh Ohh
Ohh Ohh Ohh
Ohh Ohh Ohh
