    Lyrics:
    Mama, take this badge off of me
    I can't use it anymore
    It's gettin' dark, too dark to see
    I feel 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 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

    Guys, this song really isn't about being too old to do the things you used to and slowly making your way back to God, leaving behind all the things that defined you in your mortal life. That is a really nice interpretation of it as well imo, but it really is about the scene from the movie it comes from. A lawman gets shot and as he slowly stumbles his way to a rock to look off into the sunset; his wife follows him and can't bear to embrace him, she just falls to the ground out of of his reach, looking at him with tears in his eyes. He looks at her shocked, afraid and as if to say 'sorry'. She gives a sad smile. He acknowledges it, still afraid, and looks back towards the sun.

He loved and lived Bob Dylan, his greatest treasure was a Dylan songbook. He always got the people who listened to him in a minute and he made seldom less than 100,- in two hours. Then he spent it all for beer to forget the pain in his soul for the rest of the day, falling asleep under bridges.

      Did you know that Billy the Kid was actually born in New York in a place called Hells Kitchen in the mid 19th century, before going out West to try to make his fortune! Just saying.

    circa 1969 Saturday early morning after an all night binge in my holiday seaside town New Brighton, Merseyside, stumbled in to a cafe, only to find the toughest guy in town hungover, nobody messed with this guy, everyone was scared of him and it was just us alone ...so I put this record on and bought him some tea and toast, we where friends for life after that,.... thanks Bob.

    The song reflects themes of mortality, resignation, and the approach of death. The narrator, addressing his "Mama," expresses a sense of weariness and surrender, indicating that he can no longer carry the burdens symbolized by his badge and guns. The repetition of "Knock, knock, knockin' on heaven's door" emphasizes the urgency and inevitability of his situation, as if he is on the brink of passing away and knocking on the door of the afterlife. The imagery of darkness and the approaching storm further underscores the impending sense of finality and closure. Overall, the song captures the emotional weight of facing mortality and the acceptance of one's fate.

    Bob Dylan is one of the greatest and most important musicians of all time! His songs are always original and never predictable! Still listens to these legendary songs from the 60s, 70s, 80s.
