Livin with my back against the wall
Nowhere but forward to fall
Well I close my eyes, somebody will catch my breath
Oh my lord lets get on board
The rides gonna scare me to death

I dont wanna leave before my time is done
Dont wanna stick around when my race is run
I dont wanna go before they call my dance
Dont wanna die asking for another chance

Come help me poor richard
And wont you help me raise the glass
Heres to me and heres to you
Them dreams all come to pass
Cruel trick of time, is played in the wink of an eye
Well heavens above you dont need no shove
The years go sailing bye, oh

I dont wanna leave before my time is done
Dont wanna stick around when my race is run
I dont wanna go before they call my dance
Dont wanna die asking for another chance

Another game of chance
A lifetime come and gone
I guess its up to me
If I dont want to say another mans song
I wanna say what grandma said, lying on her dying bed
I aint been cheated, no mistreated, and I dont have to say that yet, oh

I dont wanna leave before my time is done
Dont wanna stick around when my race is run
I dont wanna go before they call my dance
Dont wanna die asking for another chance
Another chance
No not another chance
No no another chance
