Bob Seger — Death Row

[Verse 1] 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 [Verse 2] 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 [Verse 3] 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
