Old 97's - I Don't Wanna Die in This Town lyrics

[Verse] How did I get here? Where was I headed? You know, I can't recall Where did everything go wrong? There was a highway Frank singing "My Way" Or maybe it was Sid Now I'm payin' for what I did First there was sirens Then there was silence And a black sky full of stars Oh, I think we might've gone too far [Chorus] Step on the gas Get out of here I don't wanna die in this town Put it in the past In the rearview mirror I don't wanna die in this town [Verse] I'll entertain you But I can't save you Although I'm doing the best I can I'm just a singer in a rock'n'roll band You want a piece of All that I think of And I'm thinkin' how pretty you are I'm lookin' for a getaway car [Chorus] Step on the gas Get out of here I don't wanna die in this town Put it in the past In the rearview mirror I don't wanna die in this town [Bridge] I got nothin' to lose in this town Gonna walk up to a wide-eyed girl Workin' at a counter, wastin' her life Tell her that I'm leavin' tonight about midnight You should come along, you should come along You should come along, you should come along [Chorus] Step on the gas Get out of here I don't wanna die in this town Put it in the past In the rearview mirror I don't wanna die in this town I don't wanna die in this town You should come along, you should come along You should come along, you should come along You should come along, you should come along You should come along, you should come along
