[Verse 1]
He prays his eyes stay open
On the long and lonesome road
He lives his life through day dreams
Of the girl he had known before
He laughs about his wasted life
Turns off the radio
There's no use in being angry
So long as he makes it home

[Chorus]
He sings, "If I could turn this around tonight
I'd drive, drive back to my old town life
And when I say that I miss you, I know it don't mean much
But I'll see you again, my Lorelei
I, I will. I will."

[Verse 2]
He pulls the break of his big rig
And gives his boss his last regard
Takes a greyhound back to his hometown
To the steps of her old front yard
He's sent to graveyard boulevard
Where he finds her at the top of the hill
He mouths the words, "Will you marry me?"
Her tombstone reads, "I will."
[Chorus]
He sings, "If I, I could have asked you out that night
I'd led a different life and maybe you would be my wife
But now I sit here missing you and I know it don't mean much
But I'll see you again my Lorelei
I, I will. I will, I will, I will."

[Breakdown]
(He ain't scared of death) He prays his eyes stay open
(He greets the end) On the long and lonesome road
(He ain't scared of death) He lives his life through day dreams
(He greets the end) Of the girl he had known before
(He ain't scared of death) He laughs about his wasted life
(He greets the end) Turns off the radio
(He ain't scared of death) There's no use in being angry
(He greets the end) So long as he makes it home

[Outro]
I will (He ain't scared of death, he greets the end)
I will
I will (He ain't scared of death, he greets the end)
I will
I will (He ain't scared of death, he greets the end)
I will
I will (He ain't scared of death, he greets the end)
I will
I will (He ain't scared of death)
I will
