lyrics

death came, up to me
suit as black, as can be
polished shoes and ironed tie
told me “son youre gonna die”
my face grew pale and my hands grew week
i knew it was my soul that he did seek
Took a moment reminisced on my years
Then Stood up to death: said look right here
I ain't lived yet so I won't die
I ain't ready yet to say goodbye
My race Ain't run my fuse Ain't burned
There's so much yet I haven't learned
I'm not going with you and that is that
I gave him a wry smile and tilt my hat (I think you meant Fedora)

He was silent through this exchange
His expression didn't even change
He reached up and touched my face
And I died with that embrace
He stepped over my body slumped
In this battle he did triumph
He straightened his tie fixed his hat
It was all over...just like that

Death turned and did disappear
The man in black that all do fear
