Bob Seger - Death Row lyrics
[Bob Seger - Death Row lyrics]
Here I am, oh my time's rolling slowly by
Twenty-one years old
Waiting on my turn to die every minute Lord
Every minute seems like five
And if it wasn't for the window
I'd wonder if the world outside was alive
Yeah, smokin' cigarettes, drinkin' coffee
And waiting on my last meal, oh
I try to pretend i try to pretend but this
Cell is much too real
Oh, I should have left that chick alone
I curse the day, I curse
The day she was born, now
Oh the old men they tell me
Tell me love is akin to hate
But before I die, I just
Gotta get it straight now, yeah
Crush out my cigarette
Throw away my coffee and scream
Ah, I don't wanna die
Oh, I don't wanna die
Oh, it's too late they'll be
Comin' for me soon
It's too late to pray, and anyway
God can't see this room
I'm startin' to sweat now
It won't be long now i can see
They're gonna put me in that chair
They're gonna put me in that chair
And that's how the end's gonna be
Yeah, now it's gettin' colder
It's gettin' colder now
And I'm startin' to scream
Ah, I don't wanna die
No, I don't wanna die
Oh, don't leave me here to die
Oh, God, I don't wanna die
Oh, I don't wanna die
No, I don't wanna die
Twenty-one years old
Waiting on my turn to die every minute Lord
Every minute seems like five
And if it wasn't for the window
I'd wonder if the world outside was alive
Yeah, smokin' cigarettes, drinkin' coffee
And waiting on my last meal, oh
I try to pretend i try to pretend but this
Cell is much too real
Oh, I should have left that chick alone
I curse the day, I curse
The day she was born, now
Oh the old men they tell me
Tell me love is akin to hate
But before I die, I just
Gotta get it straight now, yeah
Crush out my cigarette
Throw away my coffee and scream
Ah, I don't wanna die
Oh, I don't wanna die
Oh, it's too late they'll be
Comin' for me soon
It's too late to pray, and anyway
God can't see this room
I'm startin' to sweat now
It won't be long now i can see
They're gonna put me in that chair
They're gonna put me in that chair
And that's how the end's gonna be
Yeah, now it's gettin' colder
It's gettin' colder now
And I'm startin' to scream
Ah, I don't wanna die
No, I don't wanna die
Oh, don't leave me here to die
Oh, God, I don't wanna die
Oh, I don't wanna die
No, I don't wanna die
