Death don't have no mercy in this land
Come to your house, won't stay long
You look in the bed and somebody be gone
Death don't have no mercy in this land

Death never takes a vacation in this land
Come to your house, won't stay long
You look in the bed and your mother be gone
Death never takes a vacation in this land

Death will leave you crying in this land
Come to your house, won't stay long
You look in the bed and your father be gone
Death will leave you crying in this land

Death always in a hurry in this land
Come to your house, won't stay long
You look in the bed and your brother be gone
Death always in a hurry in this land
