Ma, take this badge off of me
I can't use it anymore
It's getting dark, too dark to see
Feel like I'm knockin' on Heaven's doorKnock, 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 doorMa, take these guns away from me
I can't shoot them anymore
There's a long black cloud following me
Feel like I'm knockin' on Heaven's doorKnock, knock, knockin'
Knock, knock, knockin' on Heaven's door
Knock, knock, knockin' on Heaven's doorMa, take this badge off of me
I can't use it anymore
It's getting dark, too dark to see
Feel like I'm knockin' on Heaven's doorKnock, 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
