Livin' with my back against the wall
nowhere but forward to fall
I close my eyes somebody catch my breath
oh my Lord let's get on board
the ride's gonna scare me to death
Don't wanna leave before my time is done
don't wanna stick around when my race is run
don't wanna go before they call my dance
don't wanna die askin' for another chance
Come help me poor Richard
won't you help me raise a glass
here's to me and here's to you
may your dreams all come to pass
cruel trick of time is played in the wink of an eye
heaven's above don't need no shove
the years go sailin by
Another game of chance
a lifetime come and gone
I guess it's up to me
don't wanna sing another man's song
I wanna say what Grandma said
lying on her dying bed
Yea I've been cheated, mistreated
I don't have to say that yet
