Text:
What is that I can see
with icy hands taking hold of me
I am death and no one can excel
I,ll open the doors to heaven or hell
Oh death, oh Death
please spare me over for
one more year
I'll fix your feet so you can't walk
lock your jaw so you can't talk
close your eyes so you can't see
this very hour come go with me
I am death, I'll take your soul
Leave the body and leave it cold
Strip the flesh all off the frame
the earth and the worms both
have a claim
Oh death, oh Death
please spare me over for
one more year
Mother please come unto my bed
Place a cold towel upon my head
My head is hot, my feet are cold
Death comes creeping upon my soul
Death how are you treating me
Close my eyes so I can't see
Hurt my body, leave it cold
Suck the life right out of my soul
Oh death, ...
please spare me over for
one more year
