I was listening to Bob Dylan’s Knockin’ On Heaven’s Door this morning. I’d heard it a hundred times before. I’m not sure it had ever struck me before that it only has two verses.
With all the Bad happening right now, the altered lyrics below lend themselves to the addition of many more verses. Feel free to add your own.
Mama, take the news away from me
I can’t read it anymore
It’s gettin’ dark, too dark for me to see
I feel like Hell's knockin’ on our door
Knock, knock, knockin’ 'pon our door
Knock, knock, knockin’ 'pon our door
Knock, knock, knockin’ 'pon our door
Knock, knock, knockin’ 'pon our door
Guns put our kids in the ground
They just want shoot even more
That long black shroud is comin’ down
I feel like Hell's knockin’ on our door
Knock, knock, knockin’ 'pon our door
Knock, knock, knockin’ 'pon our door
Knock, knock, knockin’ 'pon our door
Knock, knock, knockin’ 'pon our door
