Well, it's too late for you to save my soul
Gonna drive my car around a telephone pole
Stand on nothin', gonna do a double
I'm gonna start a fire in the after life
I'm never gonna R.I.P.
I'm never gonna R.I.P.
Not going down in history
'Cause I ain't never gonna R.I.P.
Stare at the reaper dead in the eye
You never gonna take me dead or alive
Don't call me a priest, you can save the last rights
I'm dead on arrival from a party last night
I'm never gonna R.I.P.
I'm never gonna R.I.P.
Not going down in history
'Cause I ain't never gonna R.I.P.
I'm a giant motherfucker with my hair on fire
Dodged a bullet in the line of fire
Shake my stick like a rattlesnake
I'm dancin' with the devil at the pearly gates, oh
I'm never gonna R.I.P.
I'm never gonna R.I.P.
Not going down in history
'Cause I ain't never gonna R.I.P.
I'm gonna hot wire a motor with the [stylin' and flame]
I'm gonna crash my car while making a break
Don't slam no [seater touchin' my coat]
The devil's on my tail but he's chasing a ghost
I'm never gonna R.I.P.
I'm never gonna R.I.P.
Not going down in history
'Cause I ain't never gonna R.I.P.
I'm never gonna R.I.P.
I'm never gonna R.I.P.
Not going down in history
'Cause I ain't never gonna R.I.P.
Well, it's too late for you to save my soul
Gonna drive my car around a telephone pole
Stand on nothin', gonna do a double
I'm gonna start a fire in the after life
I'm never gonna R.I.P.
I'm never gonna R.I.P.
Not going down in history
'Cause I ain't never gonna R.I.P.
Stare at the reaper dead in the eye
You never gonna take me dead or alive
Don't call me a priest, you can save the last rights
I'm dead on arrival from a party last night
I'm never gonna R.I.P.
I'm never gonna R.I.P.
Not going down in history
'Cause I ain't never gonna R.I.P.
I'm a giant motherfucker with my hair on fire
Dodged a bullet in the line of fire
Shake my stick like a rattlesnake
I'm dancin' with the devil at the pearly gates, oh
I'm never gonna R.I.P.
I'm never gonna R.I.P.
Not going down in history
'Cause I ain't never gonna R.I.P.
I'm gonna hot wire a motor with the [stylin' and flame]
I'm gonna crash my car while making a break
Don't slam no [seater touchin' my coat]
The devil's on my tail but he's chasing a ghost
I'm never gonna R.I.P.
I'm never gonna R.I.P.
Not going down in history
'Cause I ain't never gonna R.I.P.
I'm never gonna R.I.P.
I'm never gonna R.I.P.
Not going down in history
'Cause I ain't never gonna R.I.P.
