Lyrics

First To Go

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Can I pay for some gifts so I can share 'em

And I'll pay with a kiss and a hung

One of these days, I'll be sure to get paid

And I'll pay you with more than my love

Now darlin' I know you're weary

But I can't give what I have none of

One of these days, I'll stop being your slave

And I'll reach back out for your love

We can't kick this together

And we can't kick this alone

I don't want to see you die tomorrow

So I hope that I'm the first to go

When I met you, you were young and you were healthy

And then I introduced you to hell

The light in your eyes flew away with the flies

So lets go find something else to sell

You puked in your sleep so I rolled you over

And for a second I thought you were dead

I said a quick prayer and I checked your pulse

And I remembered the last thing you said

We can't kick this together

And we can't kick this alone

I don't want to see you die tomorrow

So I hope that I'm the first to go

Our lives are now worn out and weary

What once used to fit like a glove

One of these days we’ll get out of this place

And I'll see you in heaven above

We can't kick this together

And we can't kick this alone

I don't want to see you die tomorrow

So I hope that I'm the first to go
