It Can't Happen To Me Lyrics

I had a friend
He didn't make it home last night
He went out on the town
And he had himself a time
When it was time for leaving, he was much too tight
He climbed behind the wheel and it cost him his life
He thought he knew better, the odds he could beat
He said, "I'll make it alright, don't you worry 'bout
me"

It can't
It can't happen to me
I got an angel watching over me
It can't
It can't happen to me
It's always someone else, you see
It can't
Can't happen to me
It can't happen to me

I knew a young man He had it all going his way
But he carried with him
A deep seeded pain
He stepped over the line to find some escape
They found him one night - Lying face down in the rain
He thought he was stronger - the odds he could beat
He said, "I'll make it alright, don't you worry 'bout
me"

Chorus

I wish I had a dollar for every time I've heard it said
"They'll never get to me, cause I'm quicker than the
rest"
The night is closing in and the hounds are at my heels
But, I'm always one step ahead

Chorus
