It’s been a long hard road, the one I’m livin’
and I’ve been taking all it’s got and I keep on grinning
And now I realize, as I’m halfway through,
There’s only one thing I need for you to do.

Oh won’t you shoot me, before I get old
So won’t you shoot me, now you’ve been told
So won’t you shoot me.......... before I get old


-----------Lead Break-------------------------------


Don’t want to live out my life in a wheel chair
Don’t want to sit around the home and play solitaire
Don’t want to be sedated and left to die
I just wanna live ‘till I’m twenty-five.


There’s gotta be a better way than an institution
Indignity and shame are no solution
You can take my car, or my home my friend
But, I’m wanna keep my pride ‘till the bitter end


So won’t you shoot me, before I get old
So won’t you shoot me, now you’ve been told
So won’t you shoot me.......... before I get old
