I heard him say ‘Momma take this badge offa me'
I can't use it anymore
It's getting dark, too dark to see
I feel I'm knocking on heaven's door

Knock knock knockin' on heaven's door
(Well, I feel I'm knockin')
Knock knock knockin' on heaven's door
(Oooh, yes I feel it)
Knock knock knockin' on heaven's door
(Mm hm)
Knock knock knockin' on heaven's door

He said I'm gonna put my guns into the ground
I can't shoot them anymore
That large black cloud is coming down
And I feel I'm knockin' on heaven's door

Knock knock knockin' on heaven's door
(Yeah)
Knock knock knockin' on heaven's door
(I feel I'm knockin')
Knock knock knockin' on heaven's door
(I feel I'm knockin')
Knock knock knockin' on heaven's door

Knock knock knockin' on heaven's door
(I feel I'm knockin' on heaven's door)
Knock knock knockin' on heaven's door
(Yes I feel I'm knock knockin)
Knock knock knockin' on heaven's door
(Ohhh yes I'm knockin')
Knock knock knockin' on heaven's door
