lyrics

O, Death. O, Death.
Won't you spare me over 'til another year?

Well, what is this that I can't see
With ice cold hands takin' hold of me
Well I am death, none can excel
I'll open the door to heaven or hell

The children prayed, the preacher preached
Time and mercy is out of your reach
I'll fix your feet 'til you can't walk
I'll lock your jaw 'til you can't talk

O, Death. O, Death.
Won't you spare me over 'til another year?

My mother came to my bed
Placed a cold towel upon my head
My head is warm my feet are cold
Death is a-movin' upon my soul

Oh death please consider my age
Please don't take me at this stage
My wealth is all at your command
If you will move your icy hand

O, Death. O, Death.
Won't you spare me over 'til another year?

I'll close your eyes so you can't see
This very hour, come and go with me
No wealth, no land, no silver no gold
Nothing satisfies me but your soul

O, Death. O, Death.
Won't you spare me over 'til another year?
