    Knockin' On Heaven's Door: Bob Dylan

    Uploaded by

    The song tells the story of a man who is dying and feels that he is knocking on heaven's door. He asks his mother to remove his badge and guns, as he can no longer perform his duties. It is getting dark, and a long black cloud is following him, so he feels that his death is near and he is knocking to enter heaven. The lyrics are repeated throughout the song to emphasize the man's impending death.
