You said I was, for far too long, away
I said, I know, but I will find a way
To be here longer, be by your side for days
And you said "Okay, please don't make me wait
You're never gotta shoot me down
I said I'm gonna be around, gimme a chance to prove it"
You're never gotta shoot me down
I said I'm gonna run the town and I'll prove it
You said I was, for far too long, away
I said, I know, and I will find a way
To be here longer, be by your side for days
And you said "Okay, please don't make me wait
Please don't–
Out of town, city limits
Never shoot me down, down, down
Couple laughs, couple spirits
Never shoot me down, down, down
Out of town, city limits
Never shoot me down, down, down
Couple laughs, couple spirits
Never shoot me down, down, down
You said I just always seemed a mile away
I said, "I know, I get kinda led astray"
Come home, see me
Act like everything's okay
And you said, "That's cool, but please don't make me wait
You're never gotta shoot me down
I said I'm gonna be around, gimme a chance to prove it
You're never gotta shoot me down
I said I'm gonna run the town and I'll prove it
You said I was, for far too long, away
I said, I know, and I will find a way
To be here longer, be by your side for days
And you said "Okay, please don't make me wait
Please don't–
Out of town, city limits
Never shoot me down, down, down
Couple laughs, couple spirits
Never shoot me down, down, down
Out of town, city limits
Never shoot me down, down, down
Couple laughs, couple spirits
Never shoot me down, down
Never shoot me down
Never shoot me down, down
Never shoot me down
Never shoot me down, down
