Well the instrumentals are definitely better then the Rolling Stones version but that is also true for the Guns and Roses cover from 1994.

Not a cover, but just better without vocals imo. 

The song actually has some pretty good lyrics but I agree it sounds better without vocals.

Original is by Burl Ives. This song has been covered more times than Doom has been ported. Still this tops  all of them..yes even the Cash version. To me this is the best.



Live and Let Die, the GNR version is better
