If it's my time to die today

Please God oh, make it fast

Balanced on this point for a year and half

I just don't think I can last There's a man who's laid to rest

The man who gave me my start

I wish I could quit but I can't and it's rough Quick is the beat of my heart

Quick is the beat of my heart So please all you people, don't you grieve for me

The blood in my veins is black and I can't bleed

I've suffered the pain and all I can face is the dark Oh, Lord, quick is the beat of my heart

Quick is the beat of my heart Now my bags are almost packed

The train's about to depart

I wish I could quit but I can't and it's rough Quick is the beat of my heart

Quick is the beat of my heart

Quick is the beat of my heart Quick is the beat of my heart

Quick is the beat of my heart

Quick is the beat of my heart If it's my time to die
