One, two
Oh, one, two, three, oh
Death went out to the sinner's house
Come and go with me
The sinner cried out, "I ain't ready to go"
I ain't got no travelling shoes
Got no travelling shoe
I got no travelling shoe
The sinner cried out, "I ain't ready to go"
I ain't got no travelling shoes
And the death went down to the gambler's house
Come and go with me
Gambler cried out I'm not ready to go
I got no travelling shoes
I got no travelling shoes
I got no travelling shoes
I got no travelling shoes
I got no travelling shoes
And then death went down to the preacher's house
Come and go with me
The preacher cried out, "Lord, I'm ready to go"
I got my travelling shoes
I got my travelling shoes
The preacher cried out, "Lord, I'm ready to go"
I got my travelling shoes
Got my travelling shoes
Got my travelling shoes
Got my travelling shoes
Got my travelling shoes
I Got my travelling shoes
Got my travelling shoes
I Got my travelling shoes
I Got my travelling shoes
