1930s American gospel quartet song, transcribed and taught by Patty Cuyler.
lyrics
Old Death (my Lord, now)
Old Death, I ain’t ready yet
Old Death (Death)
Spare me over just another year (Death )
If I was a sinner just like you
Spare me over just another year
I’d fall down on my knees and pray ‘til I came through
Spare me over just another year (keep on singin’ now)
Now if religion was one thing that money could buy
Spare me over just another year
Well, the rich would live and the poor would die
Spare me over just another year (keep on singin’ now)
