Verse 1

Before I die

I'd like to do something nice

Take my hand and I'll take you for a ride

You hit me yesterday

Because I made you cry

So before we die let me do something nice

Chorus

I want to buy you something

 But I don't have any money, no I don't have any money

I want to buy you something

 but I don't have any money, no I don't have any money

Repeat [INTRO/RIFF]

Verse 2

And if I had a car

I would trade in my car

If I had a gun I would trade in my gun

 Honey we ran from the country when we rushed to the city

 And now there's nothing to be done

 There's nothing to be done (x3)

Repeat [CHORUS] and [INTRO/RIFF] until end!
