about

Originally recorded by Vera Hall in 1959 on the Lomax Recordings as "Death, Have Mercy"

lyrics

Oh, Death have mercy
Oh, Death be easy
Oh, Death
Just spare me over another year

If I was a flower in my bloom, well
Make Death come me down so soon
Oh, Death have mercy

Stretch my eyes and stretch my limbs
This is the way that death begins
Oh, have mercy

What is this love that I can’t see?
Cold ice hands all over me
Oh, Death have mercy

Stretch my eyes and stretch my limbs
This is the way that death begins
Oh, have mercy
