Verse 1:
If sweet death should ever conquer me
Let me know boys, let me know
If you hear him coming, won’t you let me flee?
Let me go boys, let me go

Verse 2:
One day death is going to conquer me
I’ll be down where the waters flow
I hope sweet heaven has a place for me
Let me know boys, let me know

Verse 3:
If sweet death should ever conquer me
Take me down to some place below
If you hear him coming, won’t you set me free?
Let me go boys, let me go

Outro:
If you hear him coming, won’t you sing for me?
That I just don’t want to go
