What is this that I can't see With icy hands takin' hold of me? I am Death, none can excel I hold the keys to heaven and hell Chorus Oh, Death, Oh, Death Won't you spare me over for another year Mother, Mother come to my bed Place a cold towel upon my head My head's so hot, my feet so cold Fell Death is moving in upon my soul Chorus Children cried, the preacher preached Time and mercy are out of reach "Death," I heard somebody say, "Won't you come back some other day "My wealth is all at your command "If you'll only remove your icy hand." No wealth, no money, no silver, no gold Nothing satisfies me but your soul Chorus I will lock your jaws so you can't talk Lock your feet so you can't walk Gonna close your eyes so you can't see This very hour come and go with me Chorus
