“Well death don’t have no mercy in this land
Well death don’t have no mercy in this land
In this land
He come to your house, he don’t stay long
Look in the bed, find your mother’s gone
I said death don’t, death don’t have no mercy in this land
Death will leave you standing and crying in this land
Death will leave you standing and crying in this land
In this land
You know he come to your house, and he don’t stay long
One of these days, you know your father will be gone
Death don’t, death don’t have no mercy in this land.”
