Oh death (oh death)
Oh death (oh death)
Won't you spare me over till another year?
Well what is this, that I can't see
With ice cold hands taking hold of me?
When God is gone and the Devil takes hold
Who'll have mercy on my soul?
Oh death oh death
Consider my age
Please don't take me at this stage
Oh death
Oh death

Won't you spare me over till another year?
Oh I am death and none can tell
If I open the door to Heaven or Hell
No wealth, no land
No silver, no gold
Nothing satisfies me just your soul
I'm Death! I come to take the soul
Leave the body or leave it cold
Oh death
Oh death
Won't you spare me over till another year?
