By My Side Songtext
von The Interrupters

You′ve been there since Queen St. in 1993
Yeah, 20 years and a thousand beers and you're still there for me (yeah)
Whitaker Park park after dark ′til the cops came spotlighting
And yet we ran, were just kids back then, and we're still singing (yeah)

I don't wanna die, I don′t wanna die
I don′t wanna die
But if I do die, do die
I know you'll be by my side

Yeah, outcasts in a small town, in Big Sky Country
You had a pickup truck with the music turned up
"Let′s Go!" cassete, side B
How we risked our lives playing with knives to escape monotony
After all the stupid things we did, our hearts are still beating (oi)

I don't wanna die, I don′t wanna die
I don't wanna die
But if I do die, do die
I know you′ll be by my side (oi, oi!)


I don't wanna die, I don't wanna die
I don′t wanna die
But if I do die, do die
I know you′ll be by my side (go)

(Hell, yeah)
(You don't have to worry about it)
(Right here in LA)
(It′s our moment, right?)
(Yeah!)

I don't wanna die, I don′t wanna die
I don't wanna die
But if I do die, do die
I know you′ll be by my side (oi, oi!)

I don't wanna die, I don't wanna die
I don′t wanna die
But if I do die, do die
I know you′ll be by my side

I know you'll be by my side (I know you′ll be by my side)
I know you'll be by my side (I know you′ll be by my side)
I know you'll be by my side (yeah)
