DEATH BELL BLUES

DEATH BELL BLUES

Oh, the reaper’s a-grinning
Oh, cause the veil is a-thinning
Need only look to the sky
To know the hour has drawn nigh

CHORUS
When living life to the toll of death’s bell
Don’t have to look too far to find hell

Oh, the smoke is a-curling
Oh, cause the brimstone’s a-burning
Need only turn to the earth
To know we’re doomed to the dirt

CHORUS

BRIDGE
So, if the bridge is a burning
Oh, we’d better start a learning
Show that the wheels are a turning
Oh, before it’s Hell we’re earning

Oh, the vulture’s descending
Oh, cause the whole world’s a ending
Need only look to the signs
To know we’ve run out of time
