Death Don' Have No Mercy / Reverend Gary Davis (by Blue Crow)
Death don't have no mercy in this land
death don't have no mercy in this land,
Come to your house, you know he don't take long
You look in the bed, you'll find your mama is gone
Death don't have no mercy in this land.
Death don't take no vacation in this land
death don't take no vacation in this land,
Come to your house, no he don't stay long
Look around the room, you see your father will be gone
death don't take no vacation in this land.
Death will leave you standing and crying in this land
death will leave you standing and crying in this land,
Come to your house, no he don't take long
you look all around, you'll find your mother gone
death don't have no mercy in this land.
(solo)
Death don't have no mercy in this land
death don't have no mercy in this land,
Come to your house, no he don't take long
You wake up one morning and your whole family is gone
death don't have no mercy in this land
death don't have no mercy in this land
death don't have no mercy in this land.
