Originally recorded in 1973 for the soundtrack of \"Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid,\" Knockin' on Heaven's Door would go on to be a part of the Dylan canon. Watch his live performance on MTV's Unplugged from 1995 now.
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
Bob Dylan is a rare artist that has managed to transcend genre to become a universally praised songwriter, performer and musician of the 20th and 21st-centuries. Starting out as a chronicler of social issues in the 1960s, Dylan has had true staying power with thirty-two studio albums released in 53 years, the most recent of which is 2015's critically acclaimed Shadows in the Night.
