Well lately, I've been having trouble every time I try to sleep

I tried meditating, medicating, even counting sheep

But it seems every time I try to lay down in my bed

A voice keeps whispering something in my head

It says boy, be careful what you do and say

You never know, you might just die today

Well, I can't help but think about why this got to happen to me

You know, I was riding easy, now I'm moving 'bout as fast as a tree

It seems every time I try, they're gonna wiz and I'm rolling slow

Am I cursed, bad luck? Hey, I don't know

I never learned to take the careful way

I better soon 'cause I might just die today

I better soon 'cause I might just die today

All I know is I don't want to die today

My baby tried to tell me I was living life too fast

You know the way you're living just ain't enough to last

I said What's wrong with you, honey, don't you like fun?

Gettin' around is so easy when all you do is run

He said, mama, I know you like your way

But you better slow down so you don't die today

But you better slow down so you don't die today

All I know is I don't want to die today

All I know is I don't want to die today
