[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
