ORIGINAL LYRICS: Oh, death, have mercy Ooh, death, have mercy Ooh, death, just spare me over another year If I was a flower in my blooms then Make death cut me down so soon Ooh, death, have mercy Ooh, death, be easy Ooh, death, just spare me over another year What is this that I can't see? Cold icey hands all over me Stress my eyes and stretch my limps This is the way that death begin Ooh, death, have mercy Ooh, death, be easy Ooh, death, just spare me over another year Ooh, death, have mercy Aah, death, be easy Ooh, death, just spare me over another year Songwriters: Vera Hall Camper Van Beethoven Lyrics: My name is death and I excel I can open the gates to heaven or hell Cast aside the flesh of thee Cast aside and set you free Oh-oh death, oh-oh-oh death, Can't you spare me over till another year I lock their jaws so they can't talk, Stiffen their legs so they can't walk Close their eyes so they can't see The chill you feel, it comes from me Oh ma-ma mama come to my bed Place a cold rag on my head My eyes are aching and i cannot see I feel the sheet pulling over me Songwriters: Chris Pederson / David Lowery / Greg Lisher / Jonathan Segal / Victor Krummenacher

ORIGINAL LYRICS:
Oh, death, have mercy
Ooh, death, have mercy
Ooh, death, just spare me over another year
If I was a flower in my blooms then
Make death cut me down so soon
Ooh, death, have mercy
Ooh, death, be easy
Ooh, death, just spare me over another year
What is this that I can't see?
Cold icey hands all over me
Stress my eyes and stretch my limps
This is the way that death begin
Ooh, death, have mercy
Ooh, death, be easy
Ooh, death, just spare me over another year
Ooh, death, have mercy
Aah, death, be easy
Ooh, death, just spare me over another year
Songwriters: Vera Hall
Camper Van Beethoven Lyrics:
My name is death and I excel
I can open the gates to heaven or hell
Cast aside the flesh of thee
Cast aside and set you free
Oh-oh death, oh-oh-oh death,
Can't you spare me over till another year
I lock their jaws so they can't talk,
Stiffen their legs so they can't walk
Close their eyes so they can't see
The chill you feel, it comes from me
Oh ma-ma mama come to my bed
Place a cold rag on my head
My eyes are aching and i cannot see
I feel the sheet pulling over me
Songwriters: Chris Pederson / David Lowery / Greg Lisher / Jonathan Segal / Victor Krummenacher
