Well, I don't want to die anymore
Don't want the Lord to call me home
I've got this feeling he ain't done with me yet
So, I'll sit right right here and place my bet
So, I don't want to die, not just yet

No, I don't want to get high anymore
Latest night brings darkest days
So hard to see through the smoke and the haze
Troubles knocking on my door
So, I don't want to get high anymore

Well, it's a hard road
To get back to my home
I don't know how much farther I can go
But if I hang on
For I know the road is long
I can teach the world to sing my song

Don't want to get by anymore
So many things I can't accept
It's you and it's me, just what are we here for?
So many things I can't ignore
So, I don't want to get by anymore

No, I don't want to die anymore
Don't call me home, no, not just yet
It's the good Lord and the Devil, doing battle for my soul
Of the likes we'll never know
So, I don't want to die anymore

Well, it's a long road
That takes me to my home
I don't know how much farther I can go
But if I hang on
For I know the road is long
I could teach the world to sing my song

Well, it's a hard road
To get back to my home
I don't know how much farther I can go
But if I hang on
For I know the road is long
I could teach the world to sing my song
