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

One day

Death is gonna conquer me

I'll be down

Where the waters flow

I hope sweet Heaven

Is a place for me

Let me know

Boys' let me know

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

If you hear him comin'

Won't you say for me

That I just

Don't want to go
