Why—do they shut Me out of Heaven?
Did I sing—too loud?
But—I can say a little "Minor"
Timid as a Bird!
Wouldn't the Angels try me
Just—once—more
Just—see—if I troubled them
But don't—shut the door!
Oh, if I—were the Gentleman
In the "White Robe"
And they—were the little Hand—that knocked
Could—I—forbid?
Why—do they shut Me out of Heaven?

But—I can say a little "Minor"
Timid as a Bird!
Wouldn't the Angels try me
Just—once—more
Just—see—if I troubled them
But don't—shut the door!
Oh, if I—were the Gentleman
In the "White Robe"
And they—were the little Hand—that knocked
Could—I—forbid?
