Katie Burke - Old Reaper Lyrics

VERSE # 1:

Old Death never scared me none,
Only thing I've known is a poor life,
Been a poor wife, had a poor son

Old Love never cut me up enough
So much that I couldn't keep walking
Get my needs, just get on with it

CHORUS:

Old Reaper, it's you I'm waiting for
Dig Deep Til my soul is cold and worn
Death and love teach us how much pain we can hold,
Lemme come meet you, I'm ready to let go

VERSE # 2:

Ain't never been scared of a man before
But I have said things and prayed, try to please the Lord
No idea where Ill end up goin, But when I go-
I won't be fighting you anymore

[CHORUS...]

VERSE # 3:

I've been blessed for a woman of my time,
I've been a kept homemaker and a woman of the night
I had to take my knees and go against what's right
But I am at peace, I ain't crying.

[CHORUS...]
