[Rook]

What is this that I can't see?
With icy hands takin' hold on me?

I am Death and none can tell
If I'll open the door to heaven or hell.

O, Death!
O, Death!
Can't you spare me over 'til another year?

O, Death- someone would pray,
Could you call some other day?
The children prayed, the preachers preached.

My time of mercy is out of your reach.
I'll fix your feet so you can't walk,
I'll lock your jaw so you can't talk.
I'm Death, to take your soul.
Leave the body and leave it cold.

O, Death!
O, Death!
Can't you spare me over 'til another year?

O, Death!
O, Death!
Please spare me over 'til another year.

Drop the flesh off of your frame,
The earth and worm both have a claim.

Mother, come to my bed.
Place cold towels upon my head.
My head is warm, my feet are cold,
And Death is movin' upon my soul.

O, Death!
O, Death!
Please spare me over 'til another year.
