Time for a song... to sing the negativeness away
Mama, take this badge off of me
I can't use 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, put my guns in the ground
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
This is my favorite Bob original, it's a very simple song, but there's just something about it that made me fall in love with it. There are many variations of the second verse, and i think version with The Grateful Dead is one of the best.
The dylan version of this song was about the death of a soldier, and i assume gnr interpreted it as such when they decided to cover. Still, the gnr version seems to also convey a sense of evaluating your life and wondering if you've really living it the way you want to. It a song you can sing any which way and still give out a damm good impact.
