Eric Clapton - Knockin' On Heaven's Door Lyrics
Ma, take this badge off of me.
I can't use it any more.
It's getting dark, too dark to see.
Feel like I'm knockin' on heaven's door.
Knock, knock, knockin' on heavens door.
Knock, knock, knockin' on heavens door.
Knock, knock, knockin' on heavens door.
Knock, knock, knockin' on heavens door.
Ma, take these guns away from me.
I can't shoot them any more.
There's a long black cloud following me.
Feel like I'm knockin' on heaven's door.
[Repeat First Verse]
[Chorus]

Eric Clapton Knockin' On Heaven's Door Comments
The 214 dislikes are from people are knocking on Hell's door.
When my son was around 6 years old he would sing, knocking on Kevin's dog. 🎶🎶🎶😆❤🐕 He's 26 years old now. He knows the words and plays a mean guitar. ❤🎶
How precious !
Knock Knock Knockin' On Heaven's Door 2020.
👍 🎸🎧🎶🥁 👍
The cool as cucumber phrase is a lie...it should as cool as this song...🔥🔥🔥
Where's the better version of this by Clapton?
I love this song. I'll always remember for being one of my favorite songs when I started to learn to play guitar
Have to go with dylan
The best cover of Dylan’s tune after Bobs , but different in a lot of ways to the easy listening reggae beat, sweet as my son
Classic,Clapton’s tunes got more real after the sad death of his wee man,nightmare for the guy, and a lot of his tunes go back to his thoughts of his bairn, obviously
♪♫♥ ;)
I feel like people would call this country music but even if it is, this is the type I love listening to.
I like Eric Clapton's cover, but I'm going to Bob Marley's cut after this.
KATABOIS REAGEE FESTIVAL 2020 TERRA DE TRASANKOS
DIFFERENT CUTS OF THE SAME SONG. MAYBE THIS ONE IS THE BEST AND SO IS ERIC THE BEST ON GUITAR, I WONDER. BOB
Go Seaside !!!

This was played at the funeral of the only man I have ever loved or will love. I miss John!!! R.I.P. 1970 - 2019
Misty Mccloy never give up miss
Take care Misty, the world still needs real women like you. Prayers for your loss...
He was truly loved..

Ma take this badge off of me..I can't use it anymore. It's getting dark to dark to see...I feel I'm knocking on heavens door. Wait who am I hear ...oh man I feel the oldsymers setting in, damb.
Clapton is a huge fan of reggae.
This version is so beautiful and relaxing.
Like Dylan but damn Clapton lays it on!
i love the reggae vibe to this version , we jammin irie !!!
this makes me sad for some reason
Wonderful!
Love you Clapton
Isn't this song named badge,?????
No that's a different song
Who in the Hell could knock this. Clapton is merely a fan of the original writer. Eric and Bob have played together many times. HUGE respect with these two. Joe W.
How many times did he knockin' ? Would love to ask Mr. Clapton about that. His life was some kind of a journey straight up and straight down. God bless him! ❤
Well I believe as many times as he had to.
Bom demais!
Sucks!!!!
Yeah, you do.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Sooooo deep😑😑😑😑😑😑😑😑😑😑😑😑😑😑😑😑
Eric is god, but the original version has that incredible scene with Slim and Katy. So here Eric is only second winner ...
Cool reggae vibe to it!
Yo la se tocar con el ukelele les dejo los acordes la menor sol re ( el do si quieren lo pueden agregar , no queda mal ) bye
Runnin, runnin, run from hell door
Best version!!
Never realized the reggae riff to this🌴💚💛🔥🌴 dopeness
A lot of Clapton songs have that vibe
@fsinatra1911 Can you give me some exemple i loooove this song
It’s amazing
The reggie riff...and you do not know how to disguise your neck. Grow a beard. Sorry I am just being a stickler. 🤘
@Clément Lagasse His version of 'I shot the Sheriff' is great as well, but I guess you know that one already haha
I hate how noobs think Clapton's or the Guns n roses etc are orignal versions. All of them are covers of Bob dylans song
Exactly
And the best versions are
1.Bob Dylan
2.Guns n Rose's
3.Avril lavigne
Just my opinion
Well life is like that
I take it this song is about the Vietnam war ?
A Film: Pat Garrett & Billy The Kid
Bob Dylan is a douche, Eric really made this song special
Danke für die Upload mein Bruder
One of the best songs for listening at leisure time....
Gracias por tu música Dios !!!.
Love Eric, and really love this song, but this reggae version leaves me cold. Sorry.
And the best is obviously bob Dylan's
This is not a cover of Dylan. Bob may have wrote it but he didn’t record it first
Great tunes
Am I the only one who thinks this sounds like Peter tosh?
Yeah mon
Excellent tune of guitar...music composition by Eric Clapton...All time hit song....
Excellent tune !!! Eric Clapton does it good !!!
The best version of knocking on heaven door was by Randy Crawford it on most greatest hits album issue every few years by the record company.
Guns n roses version's the best. I like clapton but he really didn't do quite good with this one. The tone of the song should've been gloomy, unlike this one.
Hirokjyoti Talukdar I personally think Dylan did it best, but I love all three interpretations
Ok, this is not Kockin'on heaven's door. This is a good song with the same words form Bob Dylan's one.
Love this song
This is the best version of the song :)
well, I hate to say this but Bob Dylan's original version is slightly better than Eric Clapton's
Because of philosophy!
Eric Clapton actually hangs out at Knot Island on the Connecticut River in Essex, Connecticut.
Canción
Muy buena
👍👏👌🤘✌️
Hugo Vázquez Fontal now saw Abdul Salam watchman in cycle at bungalow lane ponevazhi ponekkara Ernakulam Kerala
the price of fame
Eric clapton is a musical god.....
Eric Clapton is amazing, but personally, I like the original better, even the GNR version is better in my opinion. But still, this isn't bad, just not my personal favorite
who cares?
Ah we be jammin man, love it
Le meilleur interprète de cette chanson !
Colette Windal pas mal en effet ... non en vrai c'est bien je déconne
Man needs a little marijuana at times to reboot his brain.
Prefer a good whiskey and that's what I just poured me ...
lol never has there been a truer statement in the history of man. Thanks Rajesh, you just made this dude's day.
I love this version. I have been brught up with this kind of music and I love it
A favourite for a long time........Simple but beautiful slide solo.
Like Dylan but damn Clapton lays it on!
choctaw flathead
I agree. This version has a special meaning for me. My husband always said when he dies he wants this song played. He died 8/15/2015 and we played this as we were spreading his ashes. RIP, love you forever Rick.
Listen Dire Strait's version for Dunblane
I’ve literally listened to this about 25 times in a row
You WA so high, 😅
This is the best version, I didn't even know this version existed. I'm like having a total fucking eargasm. mmmmmm fuck.
that intro is the sound of heaven i swear
While I still think Dylans original is the best, I like this funky upbeat one a lot
Film drama bercinta eropa
simply de BEST
I hate how people don't know that all of these versions (Eric Clapton, Guns and Roses, etc.) are all just covers of Bob Dylan's.
If they know who Clapton is they know Dylan wrote this.
Yes its a cover.
💌😎🤘
Problem is most of the versions of this on YouTube purporting to be Dylan himself are covers, as with most of Dylan's other songs (for some bizarre reason).
I love how people have to remind us that all these versions just came from Dylan. Clapton is lord, though.
just brillant
this makes me sad for some reason
Well said. Its true.
I've been listening to it for 40 years and I still cry...
Wild guess, because its about dying...
Without knowing you,
I think that means you should do more of what you almost did or more of what you wanted to do. And i'm not trying to say you haven't done much im just saying... and im ah saying 'cuz the fire im sitting in front of isn't as warm as the whisky im drinking has me ah feeling. Enjoy yourself!
Like Danni said man.
check this wicked version out! https://soundcloud.com/dougiestewart/knocking-jam
Greatest name for a 「STAND」 ever.
Haydn Anderson Did you write that out of your own free will?
Eric Clapton sucks
Or maybe Bob Dylan!
U suck! this version is awesome
You couldn't find versions from Bob Dylan (original version), Guns N'Roses, Bryan
Ferry, Avril Lavigne or even Zé Ramalho, and came here just to complain about Eric? Get out!
TheComputerChicken And you swallow
You know nothing a out the guitar do you?
best version :)
that's debatable
No go listen Dire Strait's version
I mean Jerf
jetf Stinnett I agree
sounds so familiar......
Guns n Roses version is the best.
@Ker Plunk Clapton*
you say that even tho if it was not for bob Dylan this would not exist
No it's Dire Straits the best version
They are all good in their way.... different soul, different touch..but they are all good...
Off. It's GUNS N ROSES!!!!
Soooo krass!!
Ich liebe dieses Lied!!
#beste
oh i never knew guns n roses' was a cover of this
@dogs It's not, it's a cover of the Dylan song made for Sam Peckinpah's version of Billy the Kid.
they are both a cover of bob dylan's original, unless you were joking?
No it's a cover of Wilson Pickett I think...
Kids kids.
All of these are covers of Bob Dylans
@Patria o Muerte LMFAO
Check out the Sunshine Company version of Knockin' On Heaven's Door.
Much better than Clapton.
i love the reggae vibe to this version , we jammin irie !!!
ediskeum , well said , I guess being a fucktard knows no bounds
Zonly1 pretty sure Bob Marley done this song with Clapton. Was he reggae?
Thanks for killing the vibe.
@Zonly1 why u on here to argue ya knob jockey
