Lyrics The Georgia Satellites

The Georgia Satellites

Another Chance

One, two, three, get it

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, let's get on board

The ride's gonna scare me to death, 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

And won't you help me raise the glass?

Here's to me, and here's to you

Them dreams all come to pass

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 oh 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

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 wanna 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 oh oh

I don't wanna leave before my time is done

I 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

Another chance

No, not another chance

No, no another chance
