Kennedy got it in a Lincoln Caesar got it the back Somebody told me Hank Williams died in his Cadillac Everybody's gotta go sometime Sooner or later they call your name I don't know where yet, but I'm willing to bet that I'm going down in flames Down in flames Down in flames When the good times end and they count my sins I'm going down in flames James Dean bought it on the highway Marilyn found it in a pill Elvis died – or did he? – they're looking for him still Some go soft and quiet Some go out with a bang Well it's way too late for the pearly gates I'm going down in flames Down in flames Down in flames When the good times end and they count my sins I'm going down in flames Add up all my misbehaving And I'm past the point of saving How can wrong feel so right? Some things you just can't change... What's it to you? HALLELUJAH! I'm going down in flames Add up all my misbehaving And I'm past the point of saving Even in this noisy barroom I can hear that long black train I already bought my ticket, I'm going down in flames Down in flames Down in flames I already bought my ticket, I'm going down in flames Down in flames Down in flames When the good times end and they count my sins I'm going down in flames
