Verse 1
Woke up in a fever to a world goin’ wrong
Lord built this nightmare to never end
Seems I rule a nation everywhere I go
Locked out at the gates of glory land
Verse
Shots in the attic look down the hall
Every inch of ground is a battle land
I’m lost down the strangers scratchin’ at the door
Locked out at the gates of glory land
Chorus
Locked out, just knock it at the gates of glory land
It’s stuck out in the wilderness again
Have mercy, St. Peter won’t you hurry up and let us in
‘Cause we’re locked out, knockin’ at the gates of glory land
Verse 3
People goin’ crazy, whole world’s insane
And it’s gettin’ harder, I’ll be damned
Flood water risin’ with poison rain
Locked out at the gates of glory land
Chorus
Locked out, just knock it at the gates of glory land
It’s stuck out in the wilderness again
Have mercy, St. Peter won’t you hurry up and let us in
‘Cause we’re locked out, knockin’ at the gates of glory land
Instrumental
Bridge
Oh there’s a raging fever goin’ around
Leavin’ only footprints in the sand
Hey and every man’s a prisoner doin’ his own time
Locked out at the gates of glory land
Chorus
Locked out just knock it at the gates of glory land
It’s stuck out in the wilderness again
Have mercy, St. Peter won’t you hurry up and let us in
‘Cause we’re locked out, knockin’ at the gates of glory land
‘Cause we’re locked out, knockin’ at the gates of glory land
