  • Not really. It's about a man begging Death for more time, with Death refusing to hear his pleas.

  • That man has a beautiful voice.

  • I looked up this song it goes back to like B.C. times :o There's a version of it in Latin this song is incredibly old!

  • very few singers these days can do occupella...REBA did it liveon tv. george jones has done it..sawyer brown(the group)...they are rare

    

  • @Corp1982 how to you figure when he says, wont you spare me over till another year?

  • Amazing song, and beautiful, haunting singing (as ever) by the great Dr Stanley.

  • @2HRTS1LOVE

    Lot of singers these days.. such as beyonce... owe a lot to Mr. Stanley? How come they sing like shit then?

    Singers these days? Hell the world is lucky to have singers like Mr Stanley and handful of other great singers, but it sure as hell ain't beyonce and such. Today's famous singer like lady gaga, beyonce, and so on.. they jokes..

  • lotsa singers these days owe a lot to Mr. Stanley...I can hear his influence from Beyonce to Reba...

  • @MirakelRakel

    Bluegrass = redneck emo, kinda. And yet, though I just seemingly used two pejoratives, it's hauntingly beautiful, isn't it?
