David Johansen And The Harry Smiths - Oh d**h lyrics

What is this that I can't see With icy hands taking hold on me I am d**h and I can't tell I'll open the door to heaven or hell Oh d**h, oh d**h Can't you spare me over till another year Oh d**h, oh d**h Please spare me over till another year Oh d**h, someone would pray "Would you call some other day?" The childrens pray the preachers preach Time and mercy is out of your reach I'll fix your feet so you can't walk I'll lock your jaw so you can't talk I'll close your eyes so you can't see This very hour come, go with me In d**h I come to take the soul Leave the body and leave it cold To drop the flesh off of the frame The earth and worms both have a claim Oh d**h, oh d**h Can't you spare me over till another year Oh d**h, oh d**h Please spare me over till another year Mother come to my bed Place a cold towel upon my head My head is warm my feet is cold d**h is a movin' upon my soul Oh d**h, how you're treatin' me You close my eyes so I can't see You hurt my body, you make me cold You run my life right out of my soul Oh d**h, oh d**h Can't you spare me over till another year Oh d**h, oh d**h Please spare me over till another year Oh d**h, consider my age Please don't take me at this stage My wealth is all at your command If you'll remove your icy hands Oh, the young, the rich or poor They're all alike with me you know No wealth, no land, no silver, no gold Nothin' satisfies me but your soul Oh d**h, oh d**h Can't you spare me over till another year Oh d**h, oh d**h Please spare me over till another year
