Lyrics

Death Don't Have No Mercy

[Verse 1]

O death don't have no mercy in this land

O death don't have no mercy in this land

He'll come to your house and he won't stay long

Look in the bed, you'll see your woman gone

Death don't have no mercy in this land

[Verse 2]

Whoa, death don't take no vacation in this land

Whoa, death don't take no vacation in this land

He'll come to your house and he won't take long

Look down your table, you'll see somebody gone

Death don't have no mercy in this land

[Verse 3]

O he won't give you time to get ready in this land

No, he won't give you time to get ready in this land

Come to your town and he won't stay long

Look down your street, you'll see everybody gone

O he won't give you time to get ready in this land

[Outro]

O death don't take no vacation in this land

No, death don't have no mercy in this land
