Mama take this badge off me.
I can't use it anymore

It's getting dark too dark to see
I feel I'm knockin' on heven's door

Knock, knock, knockin' on heven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heven's door

Mama put my guns in the ground
I can't shoot them anymore

That long black could is coming down
I feel I'm knockin' on heven's door

Knock, knock, knockin' on heven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on heven's door
