Mama take this badge away from me

I don't need it anymore

It's gettin' dark too dark for me to see

I feel like I'm 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

Knock knock knockin' on heaven's door

Mama take these guns and bury them in the ground

For I can't shoot them anymore

That long black cloud is comin' down

I feel like I'm 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

Knock knock knockin' on heaven's door

Knock knock knockin' on heaven's door

Can't you here me knockin'

Knock knock knockin' on heaven's door

Oh Lord I'm knockin'

Knock knock knockin' on heaven's door

I am knockin'

Knock knock knockin' on heaven's door
