Oh my god, you must be joking me.
I could hardly believe it at all.
And oh my lord, you must be kidding me,
I said when I got the call.

America just lost the greatest hero of our time.
He could jump over buildings in that motorbike better than any man alive.
So farewell my friend, this is my goodbye.

Oh my god, did you see that crash?
He just literally caught on fire.
And oh sweet lord when he stood and spoke,
this whole nation would stand and admire.

(That's right)
America just lost the greatest hero of our time.
He could jump over buildings in that motorbike better than any man alive.
So farewell my friend, this is my goodbye.

Oh my god, how could this happen?
You never did make it over that snake river canyon.
But now you are headed in a rocket to heaven,
and your legend lives on and on.
