Mama take this badge of me

I can't use it any more

It's getting dark too dark to see

Feel like I'm knocking on heaven's door

Knock knock knocking on heaven's door

Knock knock knocking on heaven's door

Knock knock knocking on heaven's door

Knock knock knocking on heaven's door

Mama book my guns in the ground

I can't shoot them any more

There's long black cloud this coming down

Feel like I'm knocking on heaven's door

Knock knock knocking on heaven's door

Knock knock knocking on heaven's door

Knock knock knocking on heaven's door

Knock knock knocking on heaven's door
