Another Chance Songtext

von Blackberry Smoke

Living 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, yeah

Oh, I don't wanna leave before my time is done
Don't wanna stick around when my race is run
I don't wanna go before they call my dance
Don't wanna die asking for another chance

Come help me, Poor Richard, won't you help me raise a glass?
Well, here's to me, here's to you, may your dreams all come to pass
Cruel trick of time is played in the wink of an eye
Heavens above don't need no shove, years go sailing by, yeah

Oh, I don't wanna leave before my time is done
Don't wanna stick around when my race is run
I don't wanna go before they call my dance
Don't wanna die asking for another chance, yeah

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
"Yeah, been cheated, mistreated, don't have to sign out yet, yeah"

Oh, I don't wanna leave before my time is done
Don't wanna stick around when my race is run
I don't wanna go before they call my dance
Don't wanna die asking for another chance
No, not another chance
No, not another chance
Oh yeah...
