Livin' with my back against the wall Nowhere but for Ward to fall Well I close my eyes, Somebody catch my breath Oh my lord Let's get on board The rides gonna scare me to d**h I don't want to leave before my time is done Don't want to stick around when my race is run I don't want to go before they call my dance Don't want to die asking for another chance Come help me poor Richard And won't you help me raise the gla** Here's to me and here's to you May your dreams all come to pa** Cruel trick of time, Is played in the wink of an eye Well heaven's above you don't need no shove The years go sailing bye, oh I don't want to leave before my time is done Don't want to stick around when my race is run I don't want to go before they call my dance Don't want to die asking for another chance Another game of chance A lifetime come and gone I guess it's up to me If I don't want to say another man's song I want to say what grandma said, Lying on her dying bed I ain't been cheated, no mistreated, And I don't have to say that yet, oh I don't want to leave before my time is done Don't want to stick around when my race is run I don't want to go before they call my dance Don't want to die asking for another chance Another chance No not another chance No no another chance
