"I Don't Wanna Die In This Town" lyrics - OLD 97'S

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

[Chorus:]
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

[Chorus:]
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

[Bridge:]
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

[Chorus:]
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
