Won't you spare me over til another year
Well what is this that I can't see
With ice cold hands takin' hold of me

Well I am death, none can excel
I'll open the door to heaven or hell
Whoa, death someone would pray
Could you wait to call me another day

The children prayed, the preacher preached
Time and mercy is out of your reach
I'll fix your feet til you cant walk
I'll lock your jaw til you cant talk

I'll close your eyes so you can't see
This very hour, come and go with me
I'm death I come to take the soul
Leave the body and leave it cold

To draw up the flesh off of the frame
Dirt and worm both have a claim
O, Death
O, Death

Won't you spare me over til another year
My mother came to my bed
Placed a cold towel upon my head
My head is warm my feet are cold

Death is a-movin upon my soul
Oh, death how you're treatin' me
You've close my eyes so I can't see

Well you're hurtin' my body
You make me cold
You run my life right outta my soul
Oh death please consider my age

Please don't take me at this stage
My wealth is all at your command
If you will move your icy hand
Oh the young, the rich or poor
Hunger like me you know
No wealth, no ruin, no silver no gold
Nothing satisfies me but your soul
O, death
O, death

Wont you spare me over til another year
Wont you spare me over til another year
Wont you spare me over til another year

out of the three version of this song Stanley's is the best, his aged voiced and demeanor really captures the folk song aspect of the song, it also has more weight being sung by someone who is old after all the song is about death.

I live in Haysi, VA and I gotta say I personally spoke with Ralph on 3 separate occasions. Once he asked me to pump his gas at a store and I did, second I tried to talk to him in the restaurant where I work, and was chewed out for interrupting his meal. And third was after a performance when I asked for a autograph and was once again chewed out. He was rude and hateful all three times. Honestly I didn't care much for him as a person, but his music is great. I wish he was still here to sing many more great songs but that's impossible. We only have the recordings now, but he can sing like no other. Especially "Oh Death".
