Death Defied By Will — Eagle-Eye Cherry

He only thought he was going for the thrill of a ride Wasn't in the plan to be gone for long But he keeps looking back over his shoulder, yeah He knows that something might go wrong

The ride it ain't smooth that is for sure Strange mood what is the cure He's got that feeling of impending doom Like being trapped in a casket inside a tomb, oh

You ought to know better You ought to know better

Now, he is determined to outsmart this snake With conviction he will stand his ground Feeling invincible like death itself But his immortality won't be found

What should he say at his own wake That he refuses to fulfil his fate He doesn't know that this is his last drive On the road we call alive
