Not just a schoolteacher from Michigan
Who met her destiny of October of 1901
Search for fortune
Search for fame
She climbed into her barrel frame
And they say
This is crazy
This is a mistake
To plunge into this river raging just north of the Empire State
Risk it all for your own sake
Hope you don't forget your name
I hope these Horseshoe Falls will bring luck to your side
The sharpened edges of these jagged rocks have turned the water white
I see you starving just to be somebody in this town
Daredevil - it's a long way down
It's never easy making history
Do you stay up all night singing yes I swear I'm all that I can be
Do you feel pressure to achieve
So much pressure to achieve
I hope these Horseshoe Falls will bring luck to your side
The sharpened edges of these jagged rocks have turned the water white
I see you starving just to be somebody in this town
Daredevil - it's a long way down
Mrs. Taylor - you've proven that you're brave
Years from now you'll pa** away without a penny to your name
Hope these Horseshoe Falls will bring luck to your side
The sharpened edges of these jagged rocks have turned the water white
I see you starving just to be somebody in this town
Daredevil - it's a long way down
