Lyrics I Don't Wanna Die in This Town - Old 97's

I Don't Wanna Die in This Town

How did I get here?
Where was I headed?
You know, I can’t recall
Where did everything go wrong?
There was a highway
Frank singing «My Way»
Or maybe it was Sid
Now I’m payin' for what I did
First there was sirens
Then there was silence
And a black sky full of stars
Oh, I think we might’ve gone too far
Step on the gas
Get out of here
I don’t wanna die in this town
Put it in the past
In the rearview mirror
I don’t wanna die in this town
I’ll entertain you
But I can’t save you
Although I’m doing the best I can
I’m just a singer in a rock’n’roll band
You want a piece of
All that I think of
And I’m thinkin' how pretty you are
I’m lookin' for a getaway car
Step on the gas
Get out of here
I don’t wanna die in this town
Put it in the past
In the rearview mirror
I don’t wanna die in this town
I got nothin' to lose in this town
Gonna walk up to a wide-eyed girl
Workin' at a counter, wastin' her life
Tell her that I’m leavin' tonight about midnight
You should come along, you should come along
You should come along, you should come along
Step on the gas
Get out of here
I don’t wanna die in this town
Put it in the past
In the rearview mirror
I don’t wanna die in this town
I don’t wanna die in this town
You should come along, you should come along
You should come along, you should come along
You should come along, you should come along
You should come along, you should come along
