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
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
