Mama, take this badge off of 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, 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, put my guns in the ground

I can’t shoot them anymore

That long black cloud is coming down

I feel I’m knocking on heaven’s door
