The engines spit out fire, I'm pushed back in my chair The pressure give me thrills as we climb in the air And I love to watch the clouds, and the mountains, and the sky Swish around a cocktail the stewardess brings by
Lord this is the life for me Lord, oh Lord this is the life for me But I don't wanna die in a airdisaster I don't wanna die on a plane
Well I fishtail through the lanes , and I make my tires squeal Power at my feet and the glory at the weel And I wind the windows down Let the wind blow through my hair God knows where I'm going, but me, I don't care
Lord this is the life for me Lord, oh Lord this is the life for me But I don't wanna die in a freeway pile-up I don't wanna die on the road
Well I'm young and I'm pretty, and I wanna stay that way Wanna be desirable 'till my dying day I don't wanna be bedridden , an old and bitter sage Have the nurses saying I'm young for my age
"HE'S YOUNG FOR HIS AGE"
Oh Lord don't let me go that way Lord oh Lord don't let me go that way No, don't make me go like a fading chorus Don't make me fade like a song
Oh Lord have mercy on your son Lord, oh Lord have mercy on me 'Cause I don't wanna die in an airdisaster And I don't wanna die in a freeway pile-up And I don't wanna go like a fading chorus And I don't wanna die for no good reason
